"That's exactly where powder cocaine goes when it is snorted. With the cocaine in your lungs, it is deposited into the bloodstream, which allows for a quicker high than if it were ingested." The above answer is not correct. Cocaine that is snorted is not inhaled into the lungs Crack cocaine is smoked, and therefore, enters the lungs and produces the fastest effect. Powder cocaine, which is administered by the route of nasal insufflation, is absorbed by the mucus membrane that lines the nasal cavity. The capillaries lining the nasal mucosa absorb the drug and it enters the bloodstream in that manner.
If smoked or snorted yes. But if injected straight into the blood stream it is going to affect not only the lungs but anywhere the blood goes which is everywhere in the entire body. Though Cocaine doesnt cause cancer it does cause organ failure so the lungs could collapse after a continued use of the drug
Well first you suck off the coating. Then you snort it. Why would it enter your lungs? Your not inhaling it, you snorting it up your nose. If you smoked it, then it would go into your lungs.
No, don't snort aspirin. You could damage your lungs. The lungs are not a substitute for the digestive system.
whatever is snorted passes through the nasal cavity, then proceeds to the lungs, like anything you inhale.
When you snort something, the substance enters through your nasal passages and is absorbed into the bloodstream through the mucous membranes in your nasal cavity. From there, it travels to the lungs and then to the heart, which pumps it out to the rest of the body. Eventually, it is metabolized by the liver and excreted through urine or feces.
Yes.
No.
well you figure, a drug that was meant to swallow not snort, of course it will do damage to the nose and more severe to the lungs.
No, snorting anything won't hurt your lungs, it never gets there O.o But why the hell would you snort librax?
something to do with lungs
when you contract your diaphram, or the lung muscle, your lungs become somewhat empty. this is called a partial vacuum. this is something that air, water, anything that can go in try to fill. the lungs, now a vacuum, pull stuff, supposed to be air!,into the lungs.
from the lungs where does it go back
One can snort anything.
