Tremors and eventually clonicotonic convulsions may result . Small doses of cocaine slow the heart rate, but after moderate doses, the rate is increased due to central sympathetic stimulation. Tremors and eventually clonicotonic convulsions may result.

Cocaine as I understand is a major stimulant and as a result will cause your body to process faster and can cause uncontrollable heart rates and even heart failure after substained use. It also has the nasty effect of turning long-time users into something like walking skeletons.

And it made Daniella Westbrook's nose fall off. What are clonicotonic convulsions?

Never heard of clonicotonic convulsion, but I guess they are muscullary convultions.

As sad as it might be there are number of young girls using this drug to stay thin. I am not sure how it is really affecting them while driving or other things but I would imagine that it could result in accidents.

cocaine usually makes the user feel euphoric, energetic, talkative, and mentally alert, especially to the sensations of sight, sound, and touch. It can also temporarily decrease the need for food and sleep. Some users find that the drug helps them to perform simple physical and intellectual tasks more quickly,
