Best Answer

No, cocaine and opium are two completely different drugs. Opium is in the opiate family. Other opiates include heroin, morphine, hydocodone (Vicodin), and oxycodone. All opiates are made from the poppy plant, and all opiates are depressants. Cocaine is a powerful stimulant that is made from the leaves of the coca plant. Crack is essentially a diluted and more easily smokable form of cocaine (it is cocaine boiled with baking soda and other household chemicals).
