In most cases, Heroin is injected rather than smoked as it has a lasting effect. Injection is considered a catalyst for consuming drugs. It does not merely increase dopamine effects should it be a dangerous option, creating additional risks for the user, who faces the danger of AIDS or other infection on top of the pain of addiction.
Heroin has a resemblance to black tar.
Heroin (like opium and morphine) is made from the resin of poppy plants. Milky, sap-like opium is first removed from the pod of the poppy flower. This opium is refined to make morphine, then further refined into different forms of heroin.
