Heroin Risks

By Peggy J Parks and Peggy J. Parks

Book Overview

Once considered a drug used only by hard-core junkies shooting up in filthy abandoned buildings and back alleys, heroin is now used by males and females of all ages and all walks of life--and was responsible for more than fifteen thousand overdose deaths in 2017. Heroin Risks presents a realistic picture of the effects of drug use and abuse, addiction, and the challenges of treatment and recovery.
