Cheese (Heroin Mixed With Cheaper Over The Counter Drugs) Continues To Destroy The Lives Of Many American Teens
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Example of cheese, seized by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.Cheese is a heroin-based recreational drug that surfaced in the United States in 2005 and came to the attention of the media inside and outside[1] the United States after a string of deaths among adolescents in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, in 2006 and 2007.
Cheese is formed by combining heroin with crushed tablets of certain over-the-counter cold medication, such as Tylenol PM. Such cold medications contain acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, and the antihistamine diphenhydramine, the active ingredient in Benadryl and a common opiate potentiator.[2] Cheese samples obtained in north Dallas contained between 2% and 8% heroin, in contrast to the 30% commonly found in black tar heroin.[3][4] Users commonly take the powder by insufflation rather than by intravenous injection. Another less common term for this mixture is "Tylenol With Smack" by analogy to the Tylenol With Codeine series.
