United States News Title: Terror of flesh-rotting cocaine affects US, Canada Don't forget what "South Park's" Mr. Mackey used to point out: Drugs are bad, mkay?. Impure narcotics make things worse. This makes the truth that around eighty percent of the street cocaine in the United States and Canada is cut with an animal de-worming narcotic that is causing human users' skin to decay and crumble away. Article resource - Flesh-rotting cocaine flooding US, Canadian borders by Newsytype.com. Who discovered it Several physicians recalled a ton of cases of individuals using cocaine with levamisole in it which led to dead skin, as reported by a June report in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology. Janssen Pharmaceutica found Levamisole in 1966 which is a hydrochloride salt with the name Ergamisol. It was used to treat humans with parasitic worm infections, and was under consideration for use in the chemotherapy treatment of colon, head and neck cancer, as well as melanoma. Humans aren't allowed to use the narcotic in the United States or Canada any longer. They were withdrawn in 2000 and 2003 due to the side effects the narcotic has. To deworm animals, veterinarians still use it. About 70 percent of the cocaine in the U.S. was cut with the deworming agent in 2010 which is how often levamisole as a cocaine cutting agent is used, drug officials state. Time reports that health departments in Canada, New Mexico, Delaware and Washington state are currently on guard for tainted cocaine. Cocaine causes necrosis Dr. Mary Mercurio is the co-author of the levamisole in cocaine study and works as a dermatologist at the University of Rochester Medical Center. She says that there have been many cases in the last year of cocaine users' skin dying. This may because, in addition to being cheap, levamisole is believed to intensify the cocaine high and later urges by stimulating the production of D1 dopamine receptors in the brain via the alteration of gene expression. The very beginning has been seen by well-being officials, Mercurio thinks. More narcotics to avoid Another narcotic from Russia known as krokodil (????????, or "crocodile") has been pointed out by the blog Scallywag & Vagabond on top of the levamisole which causes skin to turn black and decay while killing blood vessels. The opiate is just a mixture of lots of things. It includes codeine, red phosphorous, hydrochloric acid, paint thinner and gasoline. It is much more potent than heroin. It is also fairly cheap. It can make it appear the consumer has gangrene as it is disfiguring.
