Held over using methamphetamine (2,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

on ice

'held over' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'using methamphetamine' is the wordplay.
'using' becomes 'on' (someone using drugs is 'on' them).
'methamphetamine' becomes 'ice' (slang term).
'on'+'ice'='ON ICE'

(Other definitions for on ice that I've seen before include "Kept chilled" , "Held in reserve" , "Waiting" , "Suspended; chilled" , "Temporarily suspended" .)
