betablockers and cocaine

[mimsung]

i ran out of betablockers (atenolol) 2 days ago and haven't been able to get a new prescription. Will there be any ill effects if i take cocaine

So what if something happend that caused you to react in a way that made you unwell. I suppose you'd be off to A+E and letting tax payers pay for treatment to get u better? I'm a nurse and get p'd off when people come in through irresponsible behaviour yet they expect first class care. I'm glad to say that the NHS is clamping down on the services that will be available to those who don't look after themselves! You must realise it's a bloody stupid thing to do or you wouldn't be asking the question. I would hate to imagine what stress your heart will be under if you do decide to go ahead and do this!

i cant believe all you "do gooders" having a go here.If mimsung wants to do cocaine then its his decision. It dont make him a bad person.
Lets get one thing clear - tobacco and alcohol do more damage and kill more people then cocaine ever will.
Read the question - mimsung is not saying they want it everyday.
Andy - sorry mate but I see people falling about,being sick,fighting,being loud thinking its cool to drink 20 pints and 10 shots and they aint all done cocaine !
Cocaine taken in moderation does none of those things but all drugs including tobacco and alcohol have to respected.
