Cocaine
Overdose 
The symptoms of a cocaine
overdose are intense and generally short in nature. Although fairly uncommon,
people do die from cocaine overdose. The exact amount of cocaine that causes
an overdose varies from person to person and is dependent on a variety of factors
including weight, metabolism, health etc. Cocaine is often "cut" with
various adulterants. This increases the risk of overdose, since the purity of
cocaine is difficult to determine. An overdose from cocaine can cause a serious
increase in blood pressure, which as a result, bleeding in the brain occurs
leading to a higher possibility of a stroke. A cocaine overdose can cause heart
and respirator problems resulting in death.
Symptoms of cocaine overdose
may include some or all of the following:
- Dangerous or fatal rise
in body temperature
- Seizures
- Heart attack
- Brain hemorrhage
- Kidney failure
- Stroke
- Repeated convulsions
- Tremors
- Delirium
- Death
