Yes, if you are injecting it with dirty needles. I have also heard that AIDS can be spread through the straws people use to snort cocaine. Cocaine makes your nose bleed, so if one person gets their blood on the straw, and then passes it to the next person, who also has a nosebleed, AIDS can be spread. This is fairly unlikely -- I mean, would you put something that had someone else's blood on it up your nose? But if you're really worried, then bring your own straw, and don't share it with anyone.

Can you get hep c or hiv from snorting drugs?
You can ABSOLUTELY get Hepatitis C from snorting drugs as Hep C is a blood to blood transmission and if someone has Hep C and uses the straw with some blood in their nose and then passes it to you and you have cuts or open blood places in your nose that IS a blood to blood transmission. Hep C is only transmitted sexually if BLOOD is shared in your sex act. Hep C does not die when it hits the air, it can live up to 4 days. HIV dies as soon as it hits the air which is why it is sexually transmitted. Yes you can get Hep C by sharing needles but you can also get it INTRANASALLY so don't share straws, rolled $$, etc

Can you get hep c from urine?
Hepatitis C is transmitted mainly by blood. This occurs through the sharing of equipment to inject drugs, needle stick injuries in health care workers, and unsafe techniques of body piercing and tattooing. Cocaine snorting can be a source of infection through the sharing of contaminated straws. Only a tiny quantity of virus is necessary for the virus to become established in the case of hepatitis C, si I suppose the answer is yes you can if the person with hepatitis c is a female and she spills menstrual blood on the toilet or if someone cuts himself and spills blood on the toilet.
