About this resource
The In the Know: Krokodil – Synthetic Heroin pamphlet highlights one of the deadliest and most destructive drugs to hit the streets in decades. Krokodil, also known as desomorphine, is a highly addictive and dangerous synthetic opioid that is often used as a cheaper substitute for heroin. It is called krokodil because it can cause the skin of users to turn green and scaly, like a crocodile’s skin. Krokodil is a concoction of powerful morphine derivatives and other chemicals.
The use of krokodil can have serious health consequences, including:
- Severe skin infections and tissue damage
- Gangrene, which can lead to amputations
- Blood poisoning (sepsis)
- Damage to the veins
- Damage to the central nervous system, leading to tremors, muscle spasms, and impaired movement
- Collapsed veins
- Infections of the bone
- Skin abscesses
Whether you’re delivering a comprehensive presentation or engaging in one-on-one discussions, these krokodil brochures seamlessly integrate into any setting. They empower your community with knowledge that is not just informative but lifesaving, enabling them to make informed decisions.
This brochure is also available in Spanish.
