Some people smoke cocaine as ‘crack’ or
‘freebase’ through a glass pipe / tube /
plastic bottle / foil, but this is less common.
WHAT IS COCAINE?
Cocaine is a white powder made from the leaves of the South
American Coca plant. Cocaine is a stimulant, meaning that when
taken into the body, high levels of dopamine is sent into the parts
of your brain that control pleasure. There are three types of
cocaine; ‘coke’ (fine white powder), ‘crack’ (small lumps or rocks)
and ‘freebase’ (crystallised powder).
HOW IS IT USED?
Most people who take cocaine will snort it.
Users often crush it into a fine powder,
divide it into lines and snort it through the
nose. When snorted, cocaine normally
takes around 5 - 30 minutes to kick in.
Powdered coke an crack can be prepared to
make a solution for injecting, which is much
more dangerous than snorting or smoking
cocaine. This methods is the least common
ways to take cocaine..
