Mixing Cocaine (coke) and Nicotine
Caution
Together they strain the heart much harder than either alone, and chain-smoking on cocaine is a big part of why people end up in hospital with chest pain. Smoke less, and treat chest pain as an emergency.
Documented synergistic cardiovascular strain: animal work shows nicotine after cocaine produces markedly greater increases in cardiac workload than either alone, and both reduce coronary blood flow reserve. Chain-smoking through a cocaine session is extremely common and is a meaningful part of why cocaine sends people to emergency departments with chest pain.
The risk here is to the body — breathing, heart, temperature or organs. Set limits before you start, because this kind of harm does not announce itself in time to react.
