Charo Monter
• Krokodil or cannibal drug: With codeine,
gasoline or oil, plus a substance known as
desomorphine. It is the most deadly and destructive
drug. It is widely consumed in poor areas of Russia
where addicts inject it (it's a third cheaper than
heroin). Causes gangrene, phlebitis, putrefaction of
the skin exposing the bones and sometimes leads to
the amputation of limbs.
• Whoonga or Nyaope: Very popular
in South Africa, it comes with detergent, rat poison,
medicines for HIV and cannabis. Very addictive, it
smokes and costs just three dollars a piece.
• Bath salts: Ivory wave, red dove, blue silk,
seventh sky, vanilla sky, moon wave, cut face. It is
the name by which synthetic drugs containing
substitute cathinones are known, with effects similar
to amphetamine and cocaine. It is administered in
various ways and is still a great unknown to
scientists. Interacts in the brain, causes high blood
pressure, suicidal thoughts and psychosis.
27. • Flakka: new drug of similar design to the
"cannibal drug" or Krokodil. Its effects are as powerful
as they are deadly. The user who takes it suffers
hallucinations, aggressiveness, hyperthermia,
hypertension and arrhythmias. It can cause death in a
matter of hours.
• AH-7921: Great resemblance to heroin, has a
potency similar to morphine when administered orally
but never sold for medical use.
• Purple Drank: It is a combination of a soft
drink and a drug of promethazine and codeine in the
form of cough syrup, which gives it that particular
violet tone. It causes euphoria and affects the motor
skills causing drowsiness and dissociation of the body.
It is the ninth most deadly drug that exists.
• Scopolamine, burundanga or
"rapist's drug": An overdose can cause
depression, tachycardia, seizures, delusions,
paralysis, respiratory failure and death. It is known as
a rapist drug because it suppresses the will of victims
who act like zombies without will. The affected loses
the memory from that period of time to about two
hours and up.
