The drugs in the list are ranked in ascending order of their
deadly quotient.
1/10
Marijuana
Marijuana is mostly a recreational drug. Although it does
figure in this list, marijuana isn't seen as being comparable
to other drugs on the list. However, it does figure in the list,
for prolonged use can lead to depression and anxiety.
2/10
MDMA
Commonly referred to as ecstasy, MDMA is, once again, not
a very harmful drug until a certain point. It is illegal in many
countries and long term use can severely affect the central
nervous system. MDMA is one of the most common party
drugs that increases the feeling of intimacy and induces a
sense of euphoria. An overdose can be disastrous, especially
when combined with alcohol.
3/10
Ketamine
Ketamine comes next on the list of most harmful drugs in
the world. It is linked with inducing paranoia even if
consumed over short time periods. Hallucinations are a
common phenomenon associated with ketamine.
4/10
Crystal Meth
The drug has massively gained popularity after the popular
TV series Breaking Bad. Crystal Meth has wide ranging
effects that severely affect the brain's functioning. If used
frequently, hallucinations, memory loss and other effects
follow. Moreover, withdrawal effects are quite severe too.
5/10
Cocaine
A popular party drug, cocaine comes next on the list of most
dangerous drugs. It is also one of the most addictive drugs
in the world. It releases massive quantities of dopamine,a
feel good chemical released by the brain. Withdrawal effects
can be hard to take. The body, apart from reacting mentally,
also reacts physically on withdrawal.
6/10
Alcohol
Known to cause the highest number of accident related
deaths, alcohol is actually more dangerous than many other
drugs on the list.
7/10
Tobacco
Tobacco is the deadliest drug in the world as far as number
of deaths is concerned. It is worse than marijuana and other
recreational drugs. It also happens to be one of the largest
sources of government revenue for many countries-
probably why it hasn't been made illegal yet.
8/10
LSD
A powerful psychedelic drug, LSD, short for Lysergic Acid
Diethylamide, is the most powerful psychedelic drug.
Prolonged use can lead to severe and irreversible paranoia.
The drug induces hallucinations and delusions. An LSD trip
lasts for almost 12 hours.
9/10
Heroin
Known as the queen of all drugs, heroin is the most harmful
drug in the world. The amount of dopamine released in the
brain while on heroin is about a hundred times more than
the amount released during an orgasm. Lighter drugs like
methamphetamine is administered to reduce the withdrawal
effects from heroin. Many cases of death when on
withdrawal have been reported. If used for long periods, the
effects on the brain are irreversible.
10/10
Speedball
This deadly combination of heroin and cocaine takes you to
a new dimension altogether. Heroin addicts who cannot get
enough of heroin often prefer the speedball. Death from a
speedball overdose isn't an uncommon phenomenon.
