LAS VEGAS (AP) - The Nevada Pharmacy Board is banning designer drugs often referred to as "bath salts."
The board approved an emergency order Thursday to outlaw the sale and use of the products that opponents say can cause heart palpitations, disorientation, extreme paranoia and violence.
KLAS-TV reports that Las Vegas police saw 72 cases last year involving the six primary chemicals in the so-called bath salts.
Street names include Vanilla Sky, Ivory Wave and Ocean Burst.
South Dakota, Maine and Delaware have also considered banning the drugs.
