It actually slows it down. This is due to the atrophy (destruction) of the muscle tissue, which can be permanent if done long enough. Muscle is the body's metabolic power house, and without it or with less of it, the body can not utilize energy (calories) at a healthy rate.
Coke is great for a couple of months, for short term weight loss, but once it's stopped, one can expect to gain back all the weight lost, plus at lease 30% more

cocaine is a narcotic barbituate, no, it doesn't speed up your metabolism, if anything, it slows it down. It alters perceptions so that those taking it feel as if they are speeding up but it is an illusion. Overdoses of cocaine cause the heart to stop.
