No. Snorting crack cocaine can result in a quick death and will surely not produce the same effects as it would if it was smoked. Someone once said to me, "snorting crack is kinda like snorting tobacco, you'd have to be double the idiot to do it like that." Crack is cooked cocaine (plus baking soda and other fillers), which causes the substance to lose much of its ability to be absorbed into your bloodstream. If your considering snorting crack, or even smoking it in that case, get some professional help. Drug rehab may be best for you. |

Cocaine is a stimulant and an anesthetic. It was traditionally used in dental practices because of its ability to numb the mouth for short periods of time.
