We know tobacco damages lungs, heart, etc, and alcohol also damages a large 
number of organs.  I can't find out what the physically damaging effects of 
heroin are if it is pure and clinically administered.  (I'm not talking 
about addiction, nor the effects of the drug, nor aids, hep c etc, just the 
damage if any pure heroin does to organs of the human body.) Thanks.
