I heard about this the other day but it's great to get some official journalistic affirmation on yet another not to do cocaine.

"Doctors say the cocaine hitting the streets in New York is now cut with levamisole, a drug that veterinarians use to de-worm livestock, causing cokeheads' skin to rot off. Snorting or smoking cocaine cut with levamisole can cause large patches of rotting skin on users' face and body. In 2010, the Drug Enforcement Agency said nearly 70% of the coke coming into the U.S. was cut with levamisole, up from 30% in 2008."

Seriously, skin rotting from drug use. Insanity. I'm not always one for conspiracy theories but I'd say if the government really wanted to wage a War on Drugs, this would be the way to win it.
