    Captagon A Synthetic Stimulant That Earned Billions For The Assad Regime

    Captagon A Synthetic Stimulant That Earned Billions For The Assad Regime

    File photo dated April 23, 2021 - Saudi customs announce seizing 2.4 million amphetamine narcotic tablets (also known as Captagon), hidden in a pomegranate fruit shipment coming, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. For years, Bschar al-Assad regime secretly netted three times more money than all of Mexico's cartels with a small white pill that everyone from ISIS terrorists to construction workers chased after. Captagon, known locally as the 'drug of jihad', and 'poor man's cocaine', was originally sold as a cure for attention deficit disorders, narcolepsy and depression when it was first developed by a German pharmaceutical firm in 1961. In 1986, Captagon was banned in almost all countries after it was listed as a Schedule II drug by the UN. Photo by Balkis Press/ABACAPRESS.COM
