Cocaine
Premier Cocaine & Crack Substance Abuse Rehab
Cocaine, an illegal stimulant derived from the coca plant indigenous to South America, is a white powdery substance. This illicit substance is often referred to as a “feel-good” drug, allowing users to socialize and party for prolonged periods. This, however, comes at a risk of dangerous short- and long-term consequences, such as addiction, fatal heart conditions, convulsions, and cerebral strokes. The substance is known in the streets by various names including coke, blow, snow, as well as nose candy. Additionally, cocaine can be processed into a solid form known as crack, suitable for smoking.

Although the “rush” associated with cocaine or crack may only last between 10 to 15 minutes, users continue to consume the substance until none is left. Cocaine has a high addictive potential, making it incredibly hazardous! The urge to misuse the substance and its psychological effects can persist even after discontinuing use.
