Is Ecstasy a Narcotic?
Ecstasy is a legal narcotic but not a medical narcotic. Ecstasy is both a stimulant and a psychedelic, giving
the user an energizing effect, euphoria, emotional warmth and empathy toward others and distortions
in sensory and time perception. Ecstasy is a Schedule I drug, meaning that it has no accepted medical
use in the United States. MDMA continues to be the most popular amphetamine.
