Explanation:

Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDA), commonly called ecstasy, is a synthetic, illegal substance with a high potential for abuse. Its use is related to several toxicity mechanisms: cardiovascular events, namely, increased blood pressure, tachycardia, arrhythmia, vasoconstriction or even acute myocardial infarction or sudden death; hyperthermia, rhabdomyolysis and hepatotoxicity; neurotoxicity, due to the action of serotonin, noradrenaline or dopamine; Psychological disorders are common effects that can arise in the long run, such as hallucinations, delusions, panic attacks, behavioral and cognitive changes, depression or even su*c*de.

This substance can infect work environments, objects and even workers. The decontamination area for workers, materials and equipment exposed to the MDA does not need to include a medical examination area, but it does need to include an equipment storage area, a washing area and a clean changing area.
