A member asked:
Can you tell me is hydrocodone as bad as heroin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Relativity: " bad" is a relative term. Are you asking about addiction, purity, side effects, potency, social stigma ? Heroin is the basis of all opiates. If heroin is manufactured under pharmacological quality controls, then there is no issue of purity. In terms of other characteristics, that depends on the user's physiology.
