The fight against drug addiction: now codein -containing drugs only by prescription

In Russia, from June 1, 2012, you can not freely buy code -containing drugs without a prescription. Now many painkillers, including Pentalgin, Solpadein and Nurofen+, can be purchased only by prescription of a doctor. As explained in the FSKN, the ban is associated with the growth of the use of deomorphine - this is a drug, which, among other things, includes codeine, reports Echo of Moscow .

Due to its cheapness and accessibility of ingredients, deomorphine is the second most common drug in Russia after heroin. According to the Federal Drug Control Service, 250 thousand people accept it.

In the 21st region of Russia, the ban on the over -the -counter sale of drugs with codeine was introduced by local authorities back in 2011. There is a decrease in the popularity of the drug.

However, Russian human rights activists have repeatedly called these actions an imitation of the fight against drug addiction, who harm patients in need of code.

"As for the struggle with drug addiction, it is, of course, mythical. Because there will be no problems to get these drugs for drug dealers. They will receive them. And this same" crocodile ", the production of which they want to stop, will still be produced. But patients who need such effective medicines will suffer from this. In addition to codin, they are still prohibited by a ketonal. For many people suffering from illness, suffering from disease, suffering from disease, suffering from disease, suffering from disease. This is a big blow, a policy of prohibitions on the fight against drug addiction, alas, is not in the interests of patients, ”said Valery Borschev, chairman of the Presidential Council of the President of the Russian Federation.

"Crocodile" is rapidly devouring Russia: Already almost a quarter of a million consumers

Dezomorphine, or Crocodile, is a dangerous drug that drug addicts prepare at home from medicines and improvised drugs. As reported in November 2011, Crocodile is rapidly gaining popularity among drug addictive Russians: the number of Crocodile consumers in Russia, according to the drug police, is approaching a quarter of a million.

According to the Russian Institute of Demography, over the past two years, at least 5-7 thousand people have died from a deomorphine. In certain regions of the country, up to 90% of the first detected drug addicts are deomorphine drug addicts. The volumes of monthly seized deomorphine over the past 2.5 years have increased 60 times.

The drug received his nickname for the ability to cause rapid fabric of tissues and severe inflammation of the veins with high speed, after which the skin of the drug addict becomes like scales. In places of injections, the body is covered with ulcers.

Deerorphine kills human immunity at a very rapid pace, his toxic components are carried by blood, and then settled in each organ. After blockage of blood vessels, the body of a drug addict rot at a very fast pace and both inside and outside.

The limbs take the first blow - in medicine it is called thrombophlebitis, as a result of which blood and nutrients cease to flow into the hands and legs. The limbs acquire brown color, quickly dry out due to a lack of blood and nutrients. In most cases, it comes to amputation.

A person who uses deomorphine for more than six months becomes like a “living corpse”. At the same time, dependence develops almost the first time, the site reports. There are several videos for viewing there, including the consequences of taking a crocodile. They are marked: "not for the faint of heart."

In turn, the FSKN of the Russian Federation on its website reports that, due to the chemical properties of deomorphine, the consuming it never sets in remission and that half of these drug addicts are still returning to the use of these substances. Previously, the deomorphine drug addicts were former heroins, but recently cases of drug addicts, who begin immediately with a deomorphine, states FSKN.
