    Author: Mueller PD, Benowitz NL, Olson KR.
    Journal: Emerg Med Clin North Am; 1990 Aug; 8(3):481-93. PubMed ID: 2201516.
    Abstract:
    There has been a dramatic rise in the number of adverse medical effects related to cocaine abuse since the widespread introduction of crystallized freebase cocaine or "crack" in the mid-1980s. In particular, cardiovascular and central nervous system toxicity is becoming more widely recognized and requires aggressive medical management to prevent potentially high morbidity and mortality.
