Cocaine Abuse

Cocaine abuse and cocaine addiction are extremely difficult to parse. Most users will adamantly deny addiction to a substance, but, even if they are not yet technically addicted to cocaine, abuse often is only a stop on the path to addiction. Both abusers and addicts will experience negative changes in their lives; their relationships with friends and family will suffer, they may lose their jobs, and they may lose interest in activities they once enjoyed.

Anyone who uses cocaine – whether recreationally or as part of an addiction – is at risk for serious medical consequences including heart attack, stroke, endocarditis, Hepatitis C, malnutrition, anxiety, depression, and skin problems. If someone you know is abusing cocaine, we encourage you to call eDrug Rehab now to set up a cocaine intervention. It is never too early to stage an intervention. Doing so will help the addict get on the path to recovery before they face serious health problems or even death.
