  1. Methamphetamine, especially in parts of East and Southeast Asia.

Word origin

Probably from Japanese シャブ (“stimulant: amphetamine, methamphetamine”), in turn possibly from the verb しゃぶる (shaburu, “to suck on something”), from the way that the addictiveness of the drugs sucks in the user.

Used in a sentence
