Long term effects on combined cocaine and alcohol use?!


Question: Research has revealed a potentially dangerous interaction between cocaine and alcohol. Taken in combination, the two drugs are converted by the body to cocaethylene. Cocaethylene has a longer duration of action in the brain and is more toxic than either drug alone. While more research needs to be done, it is noteworthy that the mixture of cocaine and alcohol is the most common two-drug combination that results in drug-related death.

Also: Because of the stimulant effects of cocaine, users drink more than they are accustomed to without feeling the depressant effects of alcohol. Cocaine, however, wears off much more rapidly, leaving the user more intoxicated than he thought he was. This situation increases the chance of suffering the worst of alcohol's debilitating effects, including slowed respiration, vomiting, and loss of consciousness. Alcohol and cocaine also combine in the human liver manufacturing a third substance, cocaethylene, which, while intensifying cocaine's euphoric effects, also increases the strain on the heart and the risk of sudden death.

Extreme deteriation of your body along with mental instability, all of which will become very apparent to everyone you know or meet.

You will eventually lose everything. Your body, work, money, relationships...all will suffer or end.

Addiction knows no boundaries. You will end up stealing from anyone, just to keep up your habit.

My own son died recently (at 34.) Cause of death: Alcohol and heroin.

I don't know what your question is? but if you are going to do these silly things, what can you expect? you'd be better, getting into a rigid programme to get off this stuff, and get your life back on track so you can enjoy living, instead of being in a haze all the time. good luck anyway.

death..
