Cocaine and Alcohol ( the mix)

Combining cocaine and alcohol creates a dangerous chemical reaction in the liver, producing a toxic substance called cocaethylene. This compound intensifies the effects of both substances, leading to heightened euphoria but also increased risks of heart attack, stroke, and liver damage. Cocaethylene stays in the body longer than cocaine alone, prolonging its harmful effects. The combination also impairs judgment, increases aggression, and leads to risky behaviors. Additionally, both substances independently elevate heart rate and blood pressure, further straining the cardiovascular system. Chronic use can lead to addiction, mental health issues, and life-threatening health complications.
