Dale Kirk: Drug educator says meth demand continues to outstrip supply in NZ due to lack of other options - Early Edition with Ryan Bridge

A concern New Zealand's meth market may be becoming even more attractive to international drug manufacturers.

Kiwi users pay some of the highest prices in the world with 100 milligrams costing around $100.

But an increase in global supply has driven prices down around the world.

He says we haven't had opioids, cocaine or MDMA take off as much here.
