I'm pretty sure we have the odd meth lab kicking around, but I guess the problem isn't as out of hand as it is in larger cities and in the US.

The only thing the US law did was drive production to Mexico.
This means more lives lost in the drug war and more money going south of the border.
It hasn't done much of anything except put production into the cartels hands. Remember, in Mexico pharmaceuticals do not require a prescription -- you can order 300 cases of that stuff to your house (err, lab) and nobody will care.
I wouldn't be surprised if usage has gone up now that supply has gone up.
