DISCLAIMER: This is a glossary of street terminology, gathered using several resources including personal experience and knowledge, for opiates and opioids . It is imperative that this list is viewed as incomplete and outdated. Slang is not the same in every state, city or even town, and you wouldn't want to assume that a particular term has one meaning; it is dangerous to do that.
