Pharmacology
This section of the site deals with the effects of heroin
and other opioids. Other aspects of pharmacology can be
found in the
chemistry
section of Heroin Helper.
- Why Users Inject Heroin
- Heroin is associated with injection more than any other street
drug. Although it is rarely discussed, there is a reason for
this. It makes more sense to inject heroin than it does most other
drugs. This article explains the why.
- Strength of Opioids
- The relative strength of the opioids--for those times when you
need to know just how many milligrams of morphine equal a gram of
methadone.
- Lycaeum Opioid Strengths
- This is a compliment to our own table. It contains some opioids that
ours does not, along with some information that we are missing (e.g. legal
schedule). Eventually, we will integrate this information into ours, but
for now, both tables are of value. Note, however, that this table does
have some incorrect information (not much, however).
