Tag: Sally

Street drug slang is constantly evolving, and a common question is, what drug is referred to as Sally? The nickname 'Sally,' along with 'Sass' and 'Sassafras,' refers to the illicit drug 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine, or MDA. MDA is a synthetic psychoactive substance that is chemically related to MDMA, often known by the street name 'Molly'.

According to a 2013 analysis by the Pennsylvania Patient Safety Authority, medication errors due to misidentification and confusion are a persistent and serious issue in healthcare. The question, 'What is Sally filled with?', is a prime example of a misunderstanding based on a misheard term, highlighting a critical area of concern in patient education and safety.
