CHAPTER

What Are the Negative Effects of Drugs?

The main thing that really concerns me about like heroin use really is constipation. Negative effects, we don't talk about much in the society.

All of this information is important for society to know, and we do know. We're collecting the data to help us with treatment if someone is having problems with these data.
