  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Crack first was used mainly in poor inner-city neighborhoods in New York, Los Angeles, and Miami in late 1984 and 1985.
  • Cardiac arrest or seizures followed by respiratory failure can occur both short and long term abuse of cocaine.
  • Individuals whose clinic gives them enough methadone to last one week, or even up to one month, commonly sell their excess prescribed methadone on the street in the illicit drug market.
  • Common substances added to cocaine are sugars, such as mannitol, lactose, or glucose, or even sugar substitutes, and local anesthetics such as tetracaine, procaine, and lidocaine. Quinine, talc, and cornstarch are also sometimes used.
  • Because OxyContin is commonly diverted for abuse, numerous states have introduced prescription monitoring and banned the sale of such prescription drugs over the internet.
