How does sniffing cocaine affect the human body?!


Question:

How does sniffing cocaine affect the human body?


Answers:

Cocaine, when snorted, is absorbed very quickly.

Short-term cocaine effects include:
-Increased blood pressure
-Constricted blood vessels
-Dilated pupils
-Mental alertness
-Increased energy
-Increased heart rate
-Decreased appetite
-Increased temperature

Some people believe using cocaine once can be safe. It isnt, however. First time users can actually die from the effects. Deaths related to cocaine effects are often a result of cardiac arrest or seizures and respiratory failure.

However, the long term effects are very detrimental on the body. Long-tem cocaine effects are noticeable as cocaine abuse continues and tolerance builds. Since cocaine is a highly addictive drug, it can lead to major medical complications and health problems. Some of the these complications include heart disease, heart attacks, respiratory failure, strokes, seizures, and gastrointestinal problems. Other physical symptoms include convulsions, nausea, blurred vision, chest pain, fever, muscle spasms, and coma.

In short, dont do it. It is tempting and sounds fun and like a great way to lose weight, but the side effects just arent worth it.
