Research regarding the toxic effects of heroin consumption on human homoleucogramma

Abstract

Due to the dynamics of drug consumption, it is important to understand the main toxicological aspects of blood, noticed in drug addicts, in order to establish the most adequate, efficient, preventive and therapeutic methods so as to diminish this phenomenon.
The products resulting from the two antagonistic metabolic processes (anabolism and catabolism) are continuously introduced or eliminated in blood, because blood maintains the connection between different organs and tissues and between different cells and digestive organs.
As a consequence, we may consider that the entire composition of blood deviations from normal (deviations that surpass sanguine homeostasis), are significantly correlated with body pathology. Moreover, blood is one of the most accessible tissues in the human body, and it can be collected and analyzed without harming the patient.
