Dangers of Cocaine

Harsh Truths

Whether it’s powder cocaine or crack cocaine, more people are admitted to emergency rooms for overdose on cocaine than any other drug in the US. Why? Because cocaine has serious side effects that can lead to heart attack and stroke. Cocaine elevates heart rate and blood pressure while simultaneously constricting blood flow in the veins. Imagine increasing pressure in a water hose while simultaneously decreasing the width of the hose itself. Eventually the pressure can burst the hose. This leads to heart attack and stroke.It’s also why many people who overdose die.

Recreational Drug?

Some people fail to get treatment because they start out using cocaine as a recreational drug. First they do it at parties. Then they do it by themselves. Perhaps they use it to stay up and complete college coursework or to help them get through grueling hours of work. Eventually, all people that use cocaine grow a tolerance for it. They need more to get the same high they used to feel. This leads to increasing the amount they typically use. This also leads to dependency. It’s difficult for people to admit they have a problem when, in the beginning, they only used the drug for “recreational” purposes.

Side Effects

There are a number of long term side effects of cocaine use. Nosebleeds are common among people that snort cocaine. Frequent use can lead to deterioration of the nasal septum, that is, the delicate cartilage that separates the nostrils from one another. You can also lose your sense of smell. Heart disease may be the number one killer of people in America but did you know that cocaine can cause or exacerbate existing heart disease? Cocaine places a great deal of stress on the heart and veins and the deterioration can lead to heart disease, heart attacks, stroke and death.

Getting Sober

For most people that are addicted to cocaine they first need to accept the fact that they have a problem. While in the initial stages of deciding on treatment, the cocaine user typically asks a lot of questions about treatment and this is normal. What will the treatment center be like? Will I have to leave my friends and family? Will my treatment center be in a nice locale or will the staff be nice to me? The best thing about Sober Freedom is that we maintain treatment centers throughout the United States and, as such, we are able to deliver the patient-centered care every person deserves.
