Led by a team in Israel, the researchers found that giving people more time and flexibility to ramp up to the recommende

The Fourth Wave: How Speedballing Is Creating a New Kind of Drug Crisis

gizmodo.com Andrew Yockey 2025-07-31 18:00:30

Speedballing—the practice of combining a stimulant like cocaine or methamphetamine with an opioid such as heroin or fentanyl—has evolved from a niche subculture to a widespread public health crisis. The practice stems from the early 1900s, when World War I soldiers were often treated with a combination of cocaine and morphine. Once associated with high-profile figures like John Belushi, River Phoenix and Chris Farley, this dangerous polysubstance use has become a leading cause of overdose death
