"That's exactly where powder cocaine goes when it is snorted. With the cocaine in your lungs, it is deposited into the bloodstream, which allows for a quicker high than if it were ingested." The above answer is not correct. Cocaine that is snorted is not inhaled into the lungs Crack cocaine is smoked, and therefore, enters the lungs and produces the fastest effect. Powder cocaine, which is administered by the route of nasal insufflation, is absorbed by the mucus membrane that lines the nasal cavity. The capillaries lining the nasal mucosa absorb the drug and it enters the bloodstream in that manner.

Though Cocaine doesnt cause cancer it does cause organ failure so the lungs could collapse after a continued use of the drug
