The classic illegal stimulant for [[trolls]] has been [[Slab]], ammonium chloride cut with radium. However, there are a number of other less common and much more dangerous substances. Most, if not all of them, begin with an "s", but there are a few exceptions:

* [[Crystal Slam]]
* [[Scrape]]
* [[Slab]]
* Sleek
* Slice
* [[Slide]]
* Sliver
* Slump
* Slunkie
* Slurp

[[Havelock Vetinari|Vetinari]]'s position on recreational chemicals for everyone in general and trolls in particular is expressed also in ''Snuff'':

<blockquote>''‘You know my position, [[Drumknott]]. I have no particular objection to people taking substances that make them feel better, or more contented or, for that matter, see little dancing purple fairies – or even their god if it comes to that. It’s their brain, after all, and society can have no claim on it, providing they’re not operating heavy machinery at the time. However, to sell drugs to trolls that actually make their heads explode is simply murder, the capital crime. I am glad to say that [[Commander Vimes]] fully agrees with me on this issue.’''</blockquote>
