Methamphetamine: Yaba is a combination of methamphetamine and caffeine, popular in southeast asia. Most blood donor sites would turn down a known user of methamphetamine. Methamphetamine is an addictive substance and illegal in many countries. It should not be used, particularly in combination with other stimulants.

No: substance abuse is a valid reason for deferment from blood donation.
