Cocaine Hydrochloride

The chemical cocaine hydrochloride is commonly known as crack. Some users chemically process cocaine in order to eliminate the hydrochloride. This procedure is called “freebasing” and makes the drug more potent. “Crack” is a solid form of freebased cocaine. It is named “crack” because it snaps and cracks when heated and smoked. Since crack is a ready form of freebased cocaine, the user does not have to buy the equipment associated with freebasing. Crack is normally in plastic bags and sold in small quantities, usually 300-500mg or enough for two to three inhalations.
