All about Drugs: Heroin

Male: Smack, H, Junk, whatever you call it, heroin is addictive. Female: Heroin is an opiate drug which is semi synthetic, that means it is part manmade derived from the drug morphine and a part natural since morphine comes from the poppy flower. Heroin is powder that can be cooked into a liquid and delivered via injection. It can also be snorted or smoked. It takes 10 seconds to feel the impact of injected heroin while other methods take minutes. Because it is derived from morphine, heroin also provides pain relief and slowed breathing. The intense ecstasy of heroin lasts a few hours and when it wears off, cravings often occur. Long-term heroin users often suffer from weakened immune systems and malnourishment, even death can result. Because the drug is injected intravenously, heroin users have an increased risk of contracting HIV and hepatitis. Remember, heroin is very addicting and is illegal. [Music Playing]
