Top Addictive Drugs - Learn the Top 3 Drugs Known For Addiction

There are many different types of drugs out there, some addictive, some not.
However there are a select few that are not only highly addictive, but you become highly dependent on them as well.
You might actually be surprised on which ones they are.
Nicotine: Found in cigarettes, it is the common leading cause of people becoming dependent and addictive to smoking.
If this one chemical was not present, then kicking the habit would not be so hard for some people.
On this list, this is the only legal drug that made it to the top of the list.
The effects of this addiction although not as destructive as some other drugs has been known to ruin many lives.
Heroin: Sadly, heroin is a very dangerous drug that even some high school aged kids are involved with.
It can be snorted, injected or smoked.
Often it is mixed with other materials that can result in convulsions and death.
Due to the tolerance that builds up, this drug requires more and more amounts to get the past high.
Those who wish to discontinue often can't cross the line due to the withdrawal symptoms being so intense.
This is a true tragedy.
Cocaine: This became a common, almost household drug before we even crossed into the 20th century and was spoken about in the days of Freud as well as during World War I..
It was then put on the narcotics list, as an illegal substance.
However, charges were rarely filed until the controlled substance act of 1970.
This drug is actually not a narcotic at all, as a narcotic is defined as an opium based product, which include heroin, and morphine.
It is however a stimulant, and a lot of people who have been known to use this drug feel little to no pain while having taken large doses.
An overdose of this drug is a misconception, as even 1 singular dose can kill you, since it is taken through the nose, it potentially can block the blood flow from your heart to your brain, thus result in death.
These 3 drugs have been listed as the top addictive drugs with the highest dependency rating.
Because it is easy to get hooked into a dependence, recreational use can be quite dangerous.
