Brown Heroin Powder

Brown heroin is a less refined form of heroin that typically appears as a brownish powder. It is often derived from morphine and can be smoked, snorted, or injected. Unlike pure white heroin, brown heroin contains impurities and is usually mixed with other substances, making its potency and effects unpredictable. Users often dissolve it with an acid, like citric acid, before injecting it, which increases the risk of infections and other health complications. Due to its lower cost and easier production, it is more common in certain regions compared to white heroin.

Side Effects of Brown Heroin

The side effects of brown heroin can be severe and life-threatening. Short-term effects include euphoria, drowsiness, slowed breathing, nausea, and confusion. Long-term use can lead to addiction, respiratory problems, collapsed veins (if injected), and an increased risk of infectious diseases like HIV and hepatitis. Since it is often mixed with unknown substances, users are at a higher risk of overdose, which can cause coma or death. Additionally, withdrawal symptoms such as muscle pain, sweating, anxiety, and intense cravings make quitting extremely difficult
