Recently the drug Ephedrine seized at KIA worth over Rs24 crore in international markets. Ephedrine is mainly used to prevent low blood pressure during spinal anesthesia. Ephedrine can be used as a medication and stimulant as well. It is also used to make amphetamines and methamphetamine. Both are addicting drugs but methamphetamine mainly used by abusers.

The firm based in the Chennai who booked the consignment and after this, sleuths tracked all the containers and 425 kg of ephedrine were stored with the bags of ammonium chloride were found.
