Higher purity allows heroin to be smoked or snorted, thereby avoiding the stigmas associated with injection.\u00a0Heroin users today tend to be younger, more affluent, and more ethnically and geographically diverse than before.<\/p>\n<p><strong>VER TAMBI\u00c9N:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cadca.org\/es\/resources\/highway-heroin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CADCA
