Answers:
The people who die on it had either a pre-existing physiological abnormality or take an excessive dose. You really should see a physician about the first point. Unless you have had a stress test in the past, there really is no way of knowing how much of this stimulant your body can handle. About the second point, the pills are made to satisfy the needs of regular users and to get novice users used to higher doses. The latter part is what ensures that the dealers can sell as much as they can. If you start at a lower dose (say 1/3 or 1/4 of a normal dose) you'll get pretty much the same effect. The difference is that it would take you a while to get to the point where you require an entire pill to have the same sensation. My point is that, it is really unnecessary to take an entire pill, especially given the risk associated with overdosing. If you do choose to do it (which I hope you think very carefully about) you should have someone sober monitor you so that if there's any sign of you over dosing, he or she can get you help.

See the wikipedia page on it and ask your physician whether it is too dangerous for you to take.

This is what I wrote at another similar question:
Some one else mentioned that MDMA is rarely sold in a pure form. I'd like to add to that with saying that it is common for the impurities to be other psychoactive drugs. PCP (phencyclidine, "angel dust") and other phenylethylamines are common additives that can increase the risk associated with the drug. Namely, the combinations of drugs can further decrease your ability to regulate your body temperature. Hyperthermia can lead to heatstroke. PCP, for one, is a noncompetetive inhibitor of the NMDA receptor - meaning that the functioning of that receptor will not be regained; this is not the case with MDMA. So, basically the additives can be more neurotoxic and in combination with MDMA can exacerbate the potentialy harmful non-CNS physiological effects.

I suggest you visit the wikipedia page to get a full understanding of the effects and dosage. also, you should realize that people do die from taking phenylethylamines due to pre-existing physiological abnormalities. So, unless you have had a stress test or experienced other strong stimulants before, you should not take MDMA. It is not simply a hallucinogen, it is far more serious. Its one of those substances that you really should read about in far greater detail and ask your physician for his or her opinion about whether or not it is safe for you specifically.

My opinion is that you should not take it, especially if you are not 100% certain that your supply is pure. Its just not worth it.

Well the worst case is you could die. Street ecstasy is not regulated in any way and you really don't know what concentrations of chemicals are in it. Your body could overheat, and the drug affects your sensory perceptions in a way that you do not notice. Or you could try to drink a lot of water to avoid dehydration like some people do and actually "drown" your cells. It's not a good idea to do X.

Edit: I am not condemning recreational drug use. I am answering the question of "what could go wrong" and the reality is that xtc is a very dangerous drug. It's not the most dangerous, but it is dangerous enough that you could really, in reality not a line from a scared straight video, die from doing it just one time.Health Question & Answer

The very WORST thing that could happen is you could overheat. Drink plenty of water, and don't dance ALL night, and I this won't happen.

Don't listen to these uneducated idiots. Very few people die from 'ecstasy' (real term - MDMA), it is non-addicting, and impossible to overdose unless you take 20 or something. It is not proven to be neurotoxic (brain damaging, like alcohol), and over-all is a very safe drug. I recommend buying and testing the X first (with a testing kit) so you will know beforehand if it happens to be fake or filled with meth (it happens).Health Question & Answer

If you haven't educated yourself enough to know the symbols and what they mean on ecstasy tablets, then I suggest you abstain from them. It won't kill you, but your lack of knowledge needs to be weighed in when it comes to the drug world. Drugs kill, destroy, demolish. You might be the lucky one, or you might be the unlucky. Educate yourself.Health Question & Answer

Geez if your not gonna be helpful dont even answer it!

Everyone knows that taking any form of drug could be potentially fatfeul.. this persons asking for people who have taken this or no of this drug and if its a good or a bad hit.. not people swearing her off like the devils child for thinking of taking a drug!

I understand people have different opinions but saying straight out "you'll die, dont do it" isnt exactly the right way, jsut ignore the question an dont answer it.

Not a good choice. It's soo bad for you and you could die even only taking it once. DONT DO IT. but everyones body is different and her body may be able to handle 1 or 2 times and yours might not be able to. Thats why she might have been fine. Plus, it makes you do stuff you would not do if you were normal.. Just dont it cuz seriuosly if you need to ask on yahoo answers you obviusly dont know you extreme dangers and need to educate urself on these drugs!!!

no matter what your friend has already done in the past, you should not do ecstasy. You could die even just from one hit or one time. All the different symbols that are on different tablets have different meanings. Unless your friend wants death for her 18th birthday present, I wouldn't even try it. Bad ideaHealth Question & Answer

I'm with everyone else. The worst cases are pretty bad. You could get really sick or die or get arrested.

I guess my best advice is to listen to that little voice in your head. Tell your girlfriend that you get enough of a high off of being with her and that you'd prefer to not do the drugs.Health Question & Answer

How about death.? Many people die from using this drug.

Don't take it - simple. If she chooses to do it anyway be a good friend and stay sober and take care of her. Two doped up girls out on the town is asking for trouble!Health Question & Answer

Oh not a thing.... and if your still bored... you can always put a single bullet in a revolver, spin the cylinder, and take turns pointing at you heads and pulling the trigger.

Word of advice... if you use a semiauto.... don't go first
