Hello, so my friend SWIM has been an addict for more years then he can even remember. SWIM is a big sniffer of Heroin (East Coast USA) & occasional Cocaine. Recently SWIMs sinuses have been having a bad reaction to the drugs. Alot worse then the usual. SWIM typically carries a Vix/Saline Nasal Spray to help, but it's hardly helpful anymore. Shooting is not an option no matter what & with SWIMs tolerance smoking it is a total waste. Any sort of Harm Reduction or over the counter treatments that would be of any actual help? Would following it up with a shoot of warm water help or make it worse? Need feed back please before his nose collapses. Thanks
 
Cocaine Harm Reduction tips are a special case of strategies and aim to minimize the negative consequences associated with its use, particularly focusing on reducing the risks of addiction, overdose, and associated health problems. These approaches acknowledge that complete abstinence may not be immediately achievable for everyone, so they seek to mitigate harm and improve overall well-being. Here are some key points to consider:

Education and awareness: Providing accurate information about the risks and potential harms associated with cocaine use is crucial. This includes educating individuals about the physiological effects, potential for addiction, and the impact on mental health.

Safer consumption practices: Encouraging safer ways of using cocaine can help reduce harm. This involves advising against risky routes of administration like injection, which can lead to additional health complications such as infections and blood-borne diseases. Encouraging snorting or smoking as alternatives may help reduce some of the associated risks. But even these methods of use can be dangerous without proper knowledge and approaches
