Abstract
Cocaine has attracted much attention as a recreational drug for humans, and some advocates have acclaimed it as both pleasurable and safe. The available evidence concerning the drug''s physiological and psychological safety was reviewed. Few deaths are attributed to cocaine, but its use is presently restricted by very limited supplies. Use of the drug may possibly result in liver and respiratory problems and may lead to paranoid psychotic conditions. Deficiencies in the knowledge of the effects of this drug were discussed.
