Question 5

Accepted Answer

A contradiction: There seems to be a paradox in your query. It sounds suspiciously like a question one would ask when one is trying to beat a drug test. But how could a heavy user hope to beat a drug test consistently? That would entail NOT being a heavy user pretty often. I guess I don't follow the logic of your question.

Question 6

what are the negative consequences of crack cocaine vs. plain cocaine?

Accepted Answer

Both very addicting: Since "crack" Cocaine is smoked, it gets into the system faster than snorting the powder. The faster it gets into brain, the more intense the high.  The speed of smoking crack is about equal to speed of IV injection -- lung vasculature is vast.  Also the intensity of crack's high passes more quickly than snorting -- leading to more and more doses to maintain the high. Huge addictiveness with each.

It depends.: You can test positive for Cocaine in your urine for up to 3 days, but sometimes benzoylecgonine, a metabolite of cocaine, can be detected in your urine for up to 3 wks, depending on how much and how frequently you use it.
