Back in my day, we just did bath salts, ate people, and called it a night.

I watched the vice guide video on Krokodil a while ago.

Krokodil - Desomorphine is basically the morphine/heroin/codeine version of methamphetamines. You take codeine and break it down in the same way you would break down psuedoephedrine to make meth.

The reason it is krokodil and not just desomorphine is because the idiots making it do a terrible job. They are typically junkies trying to manufacture a quick high and don't take any time to refine the product. So they inject a bunch of other stuff that is eating away their flesh. The major issue with Krok vs. Heroin is that its high lasts about an hour vs. 4-8 hours, and it takes about 30 minutes to brew up another homecooked flesheating batch. And since it is far cheaper to produce, at least according to the Chicago people, people looking to buy heroin are going to be sold Krok and have the delightful side effect of losing their skin. There were similar issues with people being sold Fentanyl (which is far stronger than heroin) and accidentally overdosing.

I've always viewed narcotics as the line you never cross in recreational drug use. For legal and personal reasons, it seems like a very obvious line to addiction, homelessness, or prison. All the homeless people I have met here in Phuket (not that many) have been heroin addicts.

Heinous. Never heard of this one. Self-correcting problem it sounds like.
