"25I NBome" is the newest street drug, most know little about.
"I've never heard of it. Never," said Lilli Abild of Vermillion, South Dakota.
Recently, police in Vermillion found the drug on some teens.
"25I NBome" is a synthetic LSD and commonly takes the form of liquid.
The drug causes users to hallucinate and police say the side effects can be very dangerous.
"There are several different types of bad side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, shaking, seizures, blurred vision, and ultimately death as well," said Officer Jon Cole with the Vermillion Police Department.
Vermillion Police say this is actually the first report of the drug in the state.
In fact, the drug is so new they are unsure of how it's made or even what's in it.
That is why they are getting the word out on Facebook to warn parents about it.
"If they come across the drug, by all means, call us and we'll deal with it. Do not handle it. The synthetic LSD is transdermal; it can be absorbed through touch," said Cole.
The Vermillion High School's resource officer is also aware of the new drug and will be educating students and teachers about it.
