Cocaine is a drug that can be taken in several ways including: snorting, smoking (freebase), and injecting the drug. Each option poses its own health risks.
For a long time, the standard way to take cocaine was by snorting the white powder up the nose. In addition to snorting cocaine, injecting and smoking is used for a faster and intense high, all of which methods put users at risk of overdose or health issues.
