In a recent article, Scottsdale-based rehab center, Pinnacle Peak Recovery, did a deep dive into the cost of cocaine. While some may wonder why this topic of discussion is beneficial for healing, the rehab center understands that education helps lower stigma and raise awareness. By discussing how the price of cocaine is determined and what the average cost is, people can make more informed decisions about their health, or better identify cocaine use in a loved one.

To start off the piece, Pinnacle Peak highlights why there’s misinformation and misconceptions about the cost of cocaine. They pull out different news articles that paint the cost of cocaine in two very different lights. They then pose the questions they know many readers will ask regarding why these differences in price point exist in the first place. The reason ties right back into the dangers of cocaine use, better emphasizing to readers why this knowledge is beneficial.

As the piece continues, Pinnacle Peak moves on to discuss the primary reasons why there are differences in price points for cocaine. “Because it’s not a regulated substance, the price of cocaine has a lot of wiggle room in what the consumer sees versus what the buyer might pay to obtain it.” The article explains. “There are many things that influence the cost of cocaine. Many of these factors are similar to ones that can influence the cost of things found in the grocery store, like supply and demand or changes in the economy.”

“The biggest influence over the price of cocaine is related to how ‘pure’ the cocaine is.” The rehab center continues. “Other substances are often added to cocaine to cut the costs seen on the backend. These substances can be anything from other drugs like fentanyl to household products like baking powder, flour, or chalk.”

Pinnacle Peak next explains how and why the price point of cocaine can and will vary not only from state to state but from city to city. They link helpful resources that back up their knowledge so readers can continue to learn more if they wish to do so.

The piece continues by next talking about the differences in price between pure cocaine, crack cocaine, and the various common measurements of cocaine. “The price of cocaine is most commonly spoken of in two different measurements: kilo and gram. Despite police seizures normally talking about cocaine by the kilo, this is not the measurement most often seen on the average consumer’s end. Most consumers will purchase a gram of cocaine or multiple grams of cocaine.”

To finish off the blog post, Pinnacle Peak Recovery provides readers with a variety of resources related to the topic. They talk further about why this knowledge is important as well as what steps readers should take if they’re concerned about a loved one’s cocaine use.
