Why Is Dependence on Some Drugs Okay but Not Others?

Question by Captain Flatulence: Why is dependence on some drugs okay but not others?
Do not confuse “abuse” with “dependence.” Most folks think it’s no big deal if they take anti-depressants, cholesterol lowering drugs or high-blood pressure medications every day (dependence).

Answer by Native American Lotus Flower
crack is bad for you don’t try it.

Chemistry
Crack cocaine, often nicknamed “crack” due to the sound that is made when it is being cooked down into this form is believed to have been created and made popular during the 1980s. Because of the dangers for manufacturers of using ether to produce pure freebase cocaine, producers began to omit the step of removing the freebase precipitate from the ammonia mixture. Typically, filtration processes are also omitted. The end result is that the cut, in addition to the ammonium salt (NH4Cl), remains in the freebase cocaine after the mixture has evaporated. The “rock” that is thus formed also contains a small amount of water.
