Answer 2

A bit of a list, but I think it should be pretty comprehensive.

Short-term side effects of heroin use can include abnormal skin sensations such as "crawling" or itching, slurred speech, twitching, trembling, constipation, nausea, vomiting, dry mouth, pupil constriction, sleepiness and nodding off, slowing of heart and breathing rates and mental cloudiness.

More serious side effects could develop, including nightmares, hallucinations, convulsions, mood swings, mental instability, impaired vision, severe constipation, menstrual problems, liver disease, fertility issues, diminished sex drive, risk of heart problems, infections of the skin, heart, and lungs, pneumonia, respiratory depression, abscesses, collapsed veins and risk of contracting HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis and tetanus.

Heroin could also lead to illness and injury because it interferes with the brain's ability to perceive pain. Upon first use of heroin, people experience an immediate rush followed by flushing of the skin, dry mouth and heaviness of the extremities. This happens soon after a dose and subsides in a few hours. Most users then alternate between states of wakefulness and drowsiness.

The most important side effect to note: Possible death.
