CHENNAI: Pseudoephedrine and mandrax, used as party drugs in foreign countries, are the most smuggled drugs in Tamil Nadu, data released by Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) show.

Pseudoephedrine was the most seized drug in the state during 2013-14. Authorities seized a total of 115kg of pseudoephedrine in the period. It is followed by mandrax (48.68kg), ganja (45.33kg) and ephedrine (37.47kg).

Sources say smugglers take pseudoephedrine abroad, mostly to Malaysia, to manufacture methamphetamine and crystal meth. One kilogram of pseudoephedrine costs Rs 60,000 to Rs 75,000, but smugglers sell it in Malaysia for Rs 7 lakh to Rs 10 lakh a kilogram.

Smugglers, with the help of illegal pharmaceutical firms, are supplying these drugs to their clients in foreign counters. "We are monitoring their movements and also taking action against them" said an NCB official.

According to him, mandrax is almost similar to paracetamol and also very difficult to differentiate. "Mandrax, which is also known as methaqualone, is banned in several countries. But there is a huge demand for this drug in African countries."
