Unfortunately, with long-term use, the high is replaced by a greatly increased risk of heart attack, stroke and heart disease – as well as a life-altering addiction. Over 25 million Americans have used cocaine at least once in their lives, and because of the culture surrounding drug use, many of these people are at risk of being a part of dangerous situations, including violence and risky sexual activity.
