Even if purer heroin addict is becoming more common, most heroin on the street is "cut" with other substances such as sugar, starch, powdered milk or quinine and also other drugs. Street heroin can sometime be cut with strychnine or other poisons. Because heroin users don't know the actual strength of the heroin or its real contents, users are at risk of heroin overdose or dying from their usage. Heroin also poses different problems cause of the transmission of HIV and other diseases that can happen from sharing needles or other heroin injection equipment. Heroin is mostly injected, sniffed/snorted, or smoked. Typically, a heroin user may inject heroin up to four different times during a day. Heroin intravenous injection provides the greatest intensity and most rapid onset of euphoria (7 to 8 seconds), while heroin intra muscular injection produces a slower onset of euphoria (5 to 8 minutes). When heroin is sniffed or smoked, peak effects are mostly happening within 10 to 15 minutes. Although smoking and sniffing heroin don't produce a "rush" as fast or as intense as intravenous injection, NIDA researchers confirmed that all three forms of heroin administration are really addictive.

Heroin injection continues to be the main method of heroin usage among addicted abusers seeking treatment; however, researchers have observed a shift in heroin usage patterns, from injection to sniffing and smoking. In fact, sniffing/snorting heroin is now the most widely reported way of taking heroin among users admitted for heroin rehabs in Newark, Chicago, and New York.

To harvest opium, the skin of the ripening pods is scored by a sharp blade. The slashes exude a white, milky latex, which dries to an adhesive brown resin that is scraped off the pods as raw opium.

Opium has important narcotic properties. Its constituents and derivatives are used as painkillers. Therefore, legal opium production is allowed under the United Nations Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs and other international substance treaties, subject to strict supervision by the law enforcement agencies of individual nations. The leading legal producer of opium is the Gregory process, where the complete poppy, excluding roots and leaves, is mashed and stewed in dilute acid solutions. The alkaloids are then recovered by Acid/Base extraction and purified. This method was developed in the UK during World War II, when wartime shortages of several essential drugs encouraged innovation in pharmaceutical processing. The French company Francopia produces 20% to 25% of the world's total requirement for authorized opioids, with total sales of about €60 million. The UN treaty requires that every nation submit annual reports to the International Narcotics Control Board, stating that year's actual use of many classes of controlled drugs as well as opioids, and projecting required quantities for the next year. This is to allow trends in use to be monitored, and production quotas allotted. The market for export of controlled substances is fixed by regulation, in part due to the discovery in the 1930s that huge quantities of opioids had been diverted from the legal pharmaceutical market to the black market via a complex web of front companies and forged declarations. The major participants at that time were Swiss pharmaceutical producers and brokers, and the military regime in pre-World War II Japan, who claimed to be using thousands of tons of opium, morphine and heroin. The products were indeed transported to China, where opium was directly used as part of the Japanese policy of annexation of Manchuria.
A recent proposal from the European Senlis Council hopes to solve the issues caused by the important quantity of opium produced illegally in Afghanistan, most of which is converted to heroin, and smuggled for sale in Europe and the USA. This proposal is to license Afghan farmers to produce opium for the nationwide pharmaceutical market, and thereby solve another issue, that of chronic under use of potent analgesics where required within developing nations. In the industrialized world, the USA is the world's biggest user of prescription opioids, with Italy one of the lowest. The Italian medical profession seems to have lately accepted that opioids have applications apart from pain relief in terminal cancer. Recorded Italian consumption has raised considerably of late.

To this end, Senlis arranged a conference in Kabul, to discuss the idea, but it is still to be seen if this will happen; internal security and corruption issues within Afghanistan make it unlikely that they soon will be capable to meet the stringent UN requirements for legal production of opioids for export. If the record of CIA interference with attempts to "buy and burn" illegal Burmese opium harvests in the past is considered (McCoy, 1991), Afghanistan's opium may be an important part of current War on Drugs policies for some time.
