After performing brain imaging tests, intracranial venous sinus thrombosis was found, which has not, up to the present date, developed significant symptoms.The aim of the above-mentioned report is to know the mechanism of action of the speed and to relate it consumption to the appearance of intracranial sinus thrombosis. To do so, a search was conducted in the PubMed database using the following terms: amphetamines and intracranial sinus thrombosis; street drugs and cerebrovascular disease; and adverse effects of the drugs.
