Peru, Bolivia and Colombia confront a growing crisis as cocaine paste, an affordable and potent form of cocaine, spreads from urban slums to middle class areas. Officials warn the addiction threatens public health, crime rates rise, and governments scramble for response with limited treatment options.
Lima youth Carlos, a 22 year old commercial artist, describes rapid cocaine paste use spreading from low income groups to the middle class. He recounts starting with one cigarette, rising to 20 of 30 nightly, and four years of struggle ending with hospital care at Nana Rehabilitation Center. He sold nearly all possessions to finance paste, even escaping home to fund his addiction.
