Best Answer

Heroin addicts can suffer from constipation. The reason is heroin affects body functions such as control of digestion, control of heartbeat, control of organ functions, and so on. The small intestines are greatly affected by heroin use and often do not work optimally in heroin addicts and this results in poor movement of feces along the small intestine. The reduced efficiency and function of the small intestines is what can lead to constipation in heroin addicts.
