title: [A brief review on cocaine].
abstract: Alongside the much more familiar heroin, cocaine is assuming increasing importance. This one-time cultivated plant of the Indios is thriving again and posing new problems in the therapy of drug abuse. To assist the general practitioner, who is increasingly confronted with drug problems, a brief report is presented on the origins, history, use and effects of cocaine. Finally, some pointers for therapy are given.
