FULL TITLE: Horrific impact of deadly 'cannibal heroin' that 'eats' addicts alive: Drug that originated in Russia is now on the streets of the U.S.
It is feared a deadly drug known as 'cannibal heroin' which eats flesh from the inside out is about to take off in the United States.
Krokodil, which is similar to heroin and originated in Russia 10 years ago, turns users into zombies as their bodies begin to rot leaving addicts with reptilian skin.
Following reports over the past month of cases of krokodil abuse in both Arizona and Chicago, Illinois, the drug is now believed to have hit New York.
The homemade concoction can be up to 10 times cheaper than heroin and is created by mixing codeine with gasoline or oil.
The drug is made of readily available ingredients such as codeine, iodine and toxins such as gasoline, industrial cleaning oil, lighter fluid and paint thinner. Users filter and boil ingredients together, then inject the drug.
The results are catastrophic.

Consider it done.
Nope, Codeine is Schedule II, Tylenol or Aspirin with Codeine is Schedule III, Tylenol with Codeine liquid is Schedule V.
In that one of the primary hazards of impurities in the drug is gangrene caused by tissue necrosis at the injection site.
On the plus side, the human nose is attuned to gangrene like few other odors, and once you smell it, you never forget the smell. This means that diagnosis is usually very easy.
Just another of nature’s way to thin the gene pool. I just hope treating these morons on our dime doesn’t break us.
That said, if it did, it would be part and parcel of obozo’s plan to destroy America.
Yup - You right
Here’s one with graphics. Most of the graphic ones are being censored at YouTube (login only), leaving videos of the drug promoters and yakking idiots more available.
Drug in Russia called “crocodile”

I’m guessing that smell is really awful, too.
Who could have guessed this would be dangerous?
From the volatile mixture, sounds like:
From Russia with Candescence
Coldfinger?
On the plus side all these homemade drugs should reduce the impact of the “war on drugs”. I’m not making light of the impact of these drugs but without various cartels, and gangs to fight the drug warriors can leave the rest of us alone.
The zombie culture is partially promoted to desensitize people and prepare them for such an attack.
Indescribably bad. I mentioned how the human nose is attuned it. They say that when a hospital patient has a strong case on the fifth floor, people can smell it on the first floor.
Because of its relative rarity, it at least used to be that when a case happened, doctors would come from miles around just to catch a sniff of it, so they could instantly recognize it in the future.
Ironically, during the Civil War, Union Army hospitals were a lot cleaner than confederate hospitals, but often had a higher mortality rate. In the South, flies would often lay eggs in the wounds, and their maggots would eat only the necrotic tissue, and thus prevent gangrene. But in the North, wounds were cleaned (if not sanitized), and dressed; which gave gangrene a chance to form.
It reminds me of hobos drinking wood alcohol and anti-freeze.
