Cocaine Vaccine Nullifies the Effect, Helps Abusers Quit

Brilliant! Thats just good work.

I wonder if this works by making them allergic to cocaine? I seem to be severly adicted to O2 any help with that?
In other news scientists discover that meth mostly afflicts useless people.

What a terrible thing.

Fascinating

any cure for emotionally weak people?

On the downside, you have to have the vaccine shot twice a day and it get you way more high then crack. Also three times more addictive.

Jokes aside, anything to help addicts who WANT to quit do so, is a great and noble venture.

Not really a major breakthrough if only 37% of the subjects produced the cocaine antibodies... making progress though. Congrats to Dr. Kosten.

Robert1234: If the vaccine worked in only 35% of those inoculated, the real question is why 45% of those same people had less cocaine in their blood at later tests. Perhaps there is more to the vaccine than antibodies?

Awesome. I can't wait till this works on everyone and they can put it in our water to kill off the drug trade

Would this not be just like antabuse for alcoholics? I have known people who are forced to take antabuse, and they still drink! That suffering is worth it to them to get their fix. That, or they simply do not take it! I do not see this have any profound effect on substance abuse.

If you read the article, you would have seen that the antibody prevents the cocaine from even entering the brain, therefore a person wouldn't get high no matter how much cocaine he snorted/ingested/shot, etc.

There would be no reason for them to do coke anymore, because the "high" has been removed from it. As the article says, the vaccine would force the body's own defense system to bind to the chemical and prevent it from being absorbed in the brain.

The only thing you have to worry about, are people switching from coke to heroin or meth or whatever else there is to get a new "high" to replace the one they used to get from coke. Now, if they start producing vaccines for all known forms of illegal drugs, that would really be something!

Side effects to a cocaine aversion vaccine might include a defective ability to bond to mates or offspring, since that is what addictability is for. If the vaccine is effective in other animals affected by cocaine, the worry would be less, since pheromones are species-specific.

We really do not need a vaccine now, since every man makes the cure for cocaine addiction on his face: healthy adult male facial skin surface lipid pheromone. Collecting the pheromone on new fresh chewing gum is child's play and recovery from drug addiction after a single small 150-250 mg dose is instantaneous.

Will The Drug Mafia Let a Vaccine Come in The Market ? This is the billion $ question. Trails of the second stage had been completed in 2004. Till today there in no vaccine. For Hi - Flu there came a vaccine in 3 months. For Mad Cow sickness in 2 weeks. But for Coccine which is big business for the Drug Mafia, I dont feel it will ever come in the market.
