Heroin
Heroin
is a drug made from morphine, a natural substance in the seedpod of the Asian
poppy plant. Heroin usually appears as a white or brown powder. Heroin can be
injected, smoked or snorted. Heroin abuse is a serious problem in the United
States. Major health problems from heroin include miscarriages, heart
infections and death from overdose. People who inject the drug also risk
infectious diseases, including HIV/AIDS and hepatitis.
Regular
use of heroin can lead to tolerance. This means users need more and more drug
to have the same effect. At higher doses over time, the body becomes dependent
on heroin. If dependent users stop heroin, they have withdrawal symptoms. These
symptoms include restlessness, muscle and bone pain, diarrhea, vomiting and
cold flashes.
