Crack Addiction: the Effects of Cocaine Hydrochloride
The chemical cocaine hydrochloride is commonly known as crack. Some users chemically process cocaine in order to eradicate the hydrochloride. This procedure is called “freebasing” and makes the drug more stronger. “Crack” is a concrete form of freebased cocaine. It is called “crack” because it snaps and cracks when heated and smoked. Since crack is a prepared form of freebased cocaine, the user does not have to buy the equipment associated with freebasing. Crack is normally in vials and sold in small quantities, usually 300-500mg or enough for two to three inhalations.
