Drug abuse has become a serious problem worldwide. In recent years, in our country the consumption of cocaine base paste (Paco) has increased by more than 200%. Despite of the fact that Paco is an intermediate product in the manufacture of cocaine, and that many of its effects are attributable to its content, its consumption produces a clearly different clinical picture than that observed in cocaine hydrochloride users, which It may be related to the impurity of this drug. Without prejudice to the great social impact produced by the consumption of this drug, little is known about its chemical composition and even less about its chronic effects on the different organs or its pathophysiology.
