According to a study published in the journal Frontiers in psychiatry Cocaine use can prematurely age the brain. When consumed, levels of dopamine increase, a chemical involved in movement control and reward.
Over time, the brain becomes accustomed to this extra dopamine generated by cocaine and begins to become resistant to its presence, which consequently leads users to increase their doses.
“Cocaine is one of the most addictive substances. It interferes with the brain’s reward pathways, forcing its cells to continue emitting pleasurable signals until the drug wears off.”
American researchers estimate that one in five people who use cocaine eventually become addicted. This addiction is considered by doctors to be a disease of the brain.
“When you enjoy sex, food, music, or other activities, brain regions in the reward pathway are flooded with pleasure-inducing dopamine. drug use as copies of cocaine which have the effectbut up to ten times more intense”.
Some of the long-term effects of cocaine depend on the method of use, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse. If inhaled, it can cause loss of smell, nosebleeds, frequent runny nose, and swallowing problems.
If cocaine is smoked, it can cause coughing, asthma, shortness of breath and an increased risk of illnesses such as pneumonia. If ingested by mouth, it can cause marked damage to the intestine due to reduced blood flow. In the long term it would be a premature aging of the brain.
