CDC Warns of Ecstasy Overdose ‘Clusters’ at Rave Events

What seems like a carefree night of revelry at a “rave” can quickly turn tragic when the club drug ecstasy is involved, finds a new report on one such event from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Bad reactions to ecstasy, in some cases mixed with alcohol or other drugs, were implicated in one death and 18 hospitalizations among people attending a 2010 New Year’s Eve rave in Los Angeles, according to the report.
