A friend injected amphetamines in his upper arm about an hour ago and now is noticing a red line on his hand which also looks pale, what is this?

Vascular response: If you're a friend of this person, help him or her get to an er to be checked out. If this is actually you, please get to an er to be checked out. Injecting anything can be dangerous, especially if you crushed tablets and injected a solution. Not to mention the systemic effects of the drug itself.
