Many times heroin is laced with other drugs which cut or enhance the effects of the drug which can stop the heart from beating with the most dangerous being fentanyl. Generally on the street heroin is sold in packets from $5.00 to $10.00 per packet and in clubs for up to $25.00 per packet Heroin is considered a cheap high compared to cocaine, oxycodone, oxycoytin or suboxone which can sell for upward of $25 per pill, strip or packet for a similar but safer high. In the last 15 years both deaths and arrests have gone from almost non existant to now being considered a crisis. In 2018 Heroin became the number one cause of death for American’s under 50 years of age.

Heroin is one of the most addictive the fastest acting opiate drug and because of this causes a person to feel euphoric with a rush of happiness or relief as the addiction causes the person to have anxious withdrawl feelings. After the initial rush the person generally either has a twilight feeling of sleep or extra alertness and mental aacuity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Unfortunately most people find themselves addicted to the drug with only a few uses. After each uses the body becomes more tolerant to the drug causing the person to use more and more of the drug to reach the same intense rush or euphoric feeling. The person because physically addicted to the drug after a few uses and after the drug feeling wears off the body craves more causing even the most strong willed person to give in and use more. These cravings never go away once addicted and can even cause cravings 20 or 30 years later to the addicted.<\/p>

Stopping the use of heroin for the addicted without proper medical attention can be as dangerous as using the drug. Side effects of stopping heroin cold turkey include but are not limited to convulsions, diaherra, vommiting, muscle pain, bone pain and even death. The worst symptons usually occur and last for a week but can last for months.<\/p>

Heroin is a life long addiction thus treatment must be continual. Most people who beat the addiction re-lapse within 5 years and if you can stay drug free for 10 years the chance of re-lapse does decrease significantly.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Because Heroin is an addictive substance and because the human body becomes more and more tolerant to heroin, this causes the user to use more and more heroin to get the same rush, Eventually most people who can not stop the addiction will die of the addiction. Because heroin is cut with different substances and offers no guarantee of quality or quantity needed for the high it is common for users to accidentally overdose. Generally it is not a painless overdose but it can be depending on the quality of the drug. Signs of an overdose are convulsions, clammy or blue skin, grasping or shallow breathing, comma, heart stoppage and death. A drug called Narcan is the brand name for a drug called naloxone that block the effects of an opioid and is used in
overdoses to try to reverse the effects of a heroin heroin, methadone, morphine, opium, codeine, or hydrocodoneoverdose. In high doses, opioids can slow down breathing and heart rate to the point of oxygen deprivation. In general Narcan binds to the same receptors that opioids do, blocking the binding of opioids and can stops their effects but it must be administered at the onset of an overdose and it does not work in all cases even when given immediately when an overdose is detected. This is generally because many overdoses happen due to mixing opioids with other drugs or alcohol.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
