Description Heroin is a fascinating drug to most people.
It is often referred to as the hardest drug.
By this logic, people might start with alcohol, work up to marijuana and maybe LSD.
Then they reach to cocaine or methamphetamine.
And finally, at the end of the journey is heroin.
But like most things about heroin, this is more myth than reality.
