Cocaine, also known as coke, is a strong stimulant most frequently used as a recreational drug.[14] It is commonly snorted, inhaled as smoke, or dissolved and injected into a vein.[11] Mental effects may include loss of contact with reality, an intense feeling of happiness, or agitation.[11] Physical symptoms may include a fast heart rate, sweating, and large pupils.[11] High doses can result in very high blood pressure or body temperature.[15] Effects begin within seconds to minutes of use and last between five and ninety minutes.[11] Cocaine has a small number of accepted medical uses such as numbing and decreasing bleeding during nasal surgery.[16]

Cocaine is addictive due to its effect on the reward pathway in the brain.[14] After a short period of use, there is a high risk that dependence will occur.[14] Its use also increases the risk of stroke, myocardial infarction, lung problems in those who smoke it, blood infections, and sudden cardiac death.[14][17] Cocaine sold on the street is commonly mixed with local anesthetics, cornstarch, quinine, or sugar, which can result in additional toxicity.[18] Following repeated doses a person may have decreased ability to feel pleasure and be very physically tired.[14]

Cocaine acts by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine.[14] This results in greater concentrations of these three neurotransmitters in the brain.[14] It can easily cross the blood–brain barrier and may lead to the breakdown of the barrier.[19][20] In 2013, 419 kilograms were produced legally.[21] It is estimated that the illegal market for cocaine is 100 to US$500 billion each year.[14] With further processing, crack cocaine can be produced from cocaine.[14]

Cocaine is the second most frequently used illegal drug globally, after cannabis.[22] Between 14 and 21 million people use the drug each year.[14] Use is highest in North America followed by Europe and South America.[14] Between one and three percent of people in the developed world have used cocaine at some point in their life.[14] In 2013, cocaine use directly resulted in 4,300 deaths, up from 2,400 in 1990.[23] It is named after the coca plant from which it is isolated.[11] The plant's leaves have been used by Peruvians since ancient times.[18] Cocaine was first isolated from the leaves in 1860.[14] Since 1961, the international Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs has required countries to make recreational use of cocaine a crime.[24]
