Can drugs be transferred to people through contact?
Many pharmaceutical drugs can be absorbed into the blood stream transdermally (through the skin), such as nicotine or hormone drugs. Illegal drugs may or may not be effectively absorbed this way. For one, it depends on the size of the molecule and how lipophilic it is. Small molecules penetrate the outer skin layers better and lipophilicity allows the molecule to diffuse through the fat undernearth.Regarding cocaine, exposure of a dry patch of skin to cocaine powder probably won't result in any noticeable physical effects, but if you put the cocaine in the armpit where it can dissolve, this can allow minor absorption through the skin. And of course it's well known that cocaine is absorbed well through contact with mucous membranes (i.e., through the nose).My understanding is that crystal meth also does not enter the blood stream effectively through the skin. This is why the addicts do something called "skin popping" where they inject it underneath the skin.
