Heroine, also known by its medical references diamorphine and diacetylmorphine, is a drug that can not only effect the mental status and capabilities of an individual, but also the inner workings of the human body.
The remarkably devastating effects are most often irreversible, and can deplete a body completely over time.
Initially synthesized in 1874, this product derived from the opium poppy, was first tested on rats, dogs and rabbits.
Results of these small injection tests were that of over-drowsiness, panic attacks, respiratory issues, vomiting and more.
Although all of these direct effects came from the drug, it was still marketed in the late 1800's as Heroine.
The drug heroine was initially used as a substitute for morphine, believing that the drug was non-addictive.
This was not the case.
Within a short twenty years, the product started to be banned by the United States Congress, the League of Nations, etc.
Users found that the product only needed to be used once before addiction was evident, and short-term effects began to take over the body.
Some of the short-term effects documented then, included but are not limited to: * Mental dependence * Muscular break-down and weakness * Mental confusion * Over tiredness and consistent drowsiness * Dryness of the mouth * Heart palpitations * Slowed breathing capabilities These were only some of the found short-term effects, but the lists continued.
As research development and testing became more technological and advanced, an even longer list of effects were discovered.
The product itself then became a dire issue in the late nineteen seventies.
The drug was being over used in much larger doses than was ever tested prior to this time.
Documentation then stated to take place on hospitalized users of the drug heroine.
The long-term effects recorded by doctors, nurses and medical examiners alike, were: * Heart Infection * Pneumonia * Abscesses within the entire body * Decrease in liver function * Collapsing of veins throughout the entire body * Mental dependence The drug became an epidemic, and it was reported in late 2006 that over 3.
5 million Americans (age twelve and above) had reported that they had used heroine at least once in their lifetime.
Over half of these reported children and adults were still currently using and/or addicted to the drug.
Heroine is a serious drug, that can effect both the mental and physical state of anyone who falls within its path.
With the immediate dependence and short-term effects that can become evident almost immediately, heroine is a devastatingly quiet killer.
To stop using immediately and seek help is always in the interest of any individual who has come into contact with this lethal drug.
