Purity - are the laxative effects of cocaine due to cuts ?

[kaczynski]

SWIM knows that somewhere along the line cocaine is sometimes mixed with laxatives before making it's way down to the little guy. Does pure cocaine have any laxative properties, or can SWIM be certain the coke is mixed when SWIM does a few lines and has to run to the bathroom?

[Benga]

cocaine has laxative qualities by itself, as most stimulants do, notably due to the associated autonomic nervous system stimulation.

it's absolutely the cocaine itself. swim loves that first-rail-of-the-evening dump. swim can get the same effect from a really strong cup of coffee. so swim knows its the stimulant.

SWIM knows that some coke is cut with Bi Carbonate Soda, which has a laxative effect...

Ah yeah, SWIM forgot that coffee has a similar effect.

SWIM has heard the old 'baby laxative' cut story a few times, and doesn't really buy it. SWIM can also get the urge for a shit from having a strong coffee or three, and really doubts that dealers would bother to cut their products which would make their consumers shit all night when there are probably much cheaper and easier things to adulterate cocaine with.

SWIM finds it to be great after taking a line, droppin a deuce, and while droppin make another line.

AHHHH YEAAAAA

No. For SWIM when he used to be around cocaine, he would get the shits just thinking about doing it. And especially while on it. He figures the body metabolism speeds up, and thinking about it causes the body to have preemptive reaction, more or less.

Not sure if the cuts that are laxatives actually add to that effect or not. Everyone SWIM knows that did coke would blame the shits on laxative cuts, but SWIM knows for sure those cuts were not in product, they even had the same effects with purified, clean product.

dopamine rush->stimulation of the parasympathetic which has as a result the movement of smooth muscles (intestines are smooth muscles)

the dopamine rush comes from the anticipation of using cocaine more than the actuall use of cocaine it self though.

be that as it may, the pressence of manitol fasilitates and kind of prolongs the effect

Cocaine is definitely a natural laxative. And as disgusting as it sounds, my Aardvark friend really enjoys blowing a big one, going in the shitter, and throwing back another one. It is really exhilirating for him. But, there have also been times when it was an uncontrollable urge to use the bano, which is when SWIM is assuming the aardvark got something whacked with baby laxative. SWIMs theory is that there are enough people out there who have heard that story, got into the game, tried to double their money and thought, "Gee, what do I add to my cocaine? Oh yeah, baby laxative!".
