In a patient information leaflet for lincomycin:
-Se debiera evitar el uso de drogas que causan extasis.
I've just not seen this one before in PILs. Do they mean Ecstasy (MDMA) or is there a "class" of drugs that cause ecstasy?
Thanks,
Juliette

Euphoria
Euphoria (/juːˈfɔəriə/; from Ancient Greek εὐφορία, from εὖ eu, "well", and φέρω pherō, "to bear") (semantically opposite of dysphoria) is medically recognized as a mental and emotional condition in which a person experiences intense feelings of well-being, elation, happiness, excitement, and joy.
MDMA – MDMA, also known as "ecstasy" and MDEA ("eve") are euphoriant drugs that induce "short-term feelings of euphoria, rushes of energy, and increased tactility" and are popular amongst young adults.[8][16]
