Russia has more heroin users than any other country in the world. Estimates put it at about two million. For these people who use heroin their lives are of crime, stints in prison, contraction of HIV and hepatitis C and then they may die early.

A homemade drug known as krokodil, or “crocodile”. It is desomorphine, a synthetic opiate many times more powerful than heroin and it is created from a complex chain of mixing and chemical reactions.
