Most heroin users will not know about the root of this drug,
so here are a few facts.
Heroin made a fortune for the pharmaceutical company, Bayer,
when they launched Heroin and Asprin as a painkiller for children and adults in
the 1890’s in the USA. But soon reports emerged of patients reporting
increasing dependence on the drug which eventually led to its ban. Heroin has a
range of street names which include “junk”, “train”, “tar”, “smack”, “H”,
“boy”, “white horse”, “brown”, “black” and “chiva” among others. It has seen an
increase in use, especially in the past decade. The other health risk presented
by heroin use is the possibility of an overdose, wherein the user experiences
breathing problems and eventually might fall into a coma. Withdrawal symptoms
after quitting the drug are also on the extremes as the user might experience
severe mood swings and might even contemplate suicide.
Why is Heroin so
addictive?
Most people who take heroin will become addicted within 12
weeks of consistent use. Heroin basically taps into your brain almost instantly
after consumption via smoking the drug, chasing its fumes or as most users
administer it, intravenous injections. It goes on further to block your
dopamine receptors, which are responsible for handling emotional pain. Users'
experience a “rush” after consumption and this is what keeps them coming back
to the drug.
