Synthetic Drugs (Spice) 

 

 

Know the Facts

  • Use and/or possession of Spice is illegal for all service members and is punishable under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
  • Spice causes elevated blood pressure, tremors, seizures, vomiting, abdominal pain and more.
  • The chemical blends are continuously manipulated and the strength of the synthetic chemical used is unknown; therefore, there is no way to know what you are ingesting or what the long-term health risks are if used. 
  •  Spice can negatively impact your paycheck, rank, Naval career, and your health. The choice is yours.
