Crack/cocaine is a stimulant
Crack is cocaine that has not been neutralised by an acid to make the hydrochlorida salt. This form of cocaine comes in a rock crystal that can be heated and its vapors smoked. The term "crack" comes from the crackling sound made when it is heated.
The immediate effects of Crack/cocaine can be;
- Exhilaration, anxiety, increased body temerature and heartrate, reduced hunger, panic, indifference to pain, sweating, enlarged pupils, increased sexual arousal, reduced concentration, increased confidence, unprredictable behaviour.
Larger doses
- Agitation, paranoia, hallucintions, dizziness, nause/vomiting, tremors, heart attack/pain, irregular breathing, reduced co-ordination and motivation, possible psychosis.

Most people do not understand that cocaine and any form of cocaine actually replaces chemicals in your brain so that you NEED more.
For some people, the high that it gives is so short, they want another 'feeling' like it, so they keep doing it.
There is no antidote for a cocaine overdose because it is a stimulant and a deppressant all at the same time.
The cut that is used in the processing stage is also another reason why it is so difficult to find an antidote.
Nicotene and heroine are just as addictive but in a different way.
They are more physical, especially the heroine.
Cocaine is a more psychological addictive drug.
