In the words of Rick James: “Cocaine’s a hell of a drug.”

Apparently, researchers in Britain are coming closer to a vaccine for cocaine’s effects. The vaccine tricks antibodies into attacking cocaine molecules in order to block the body’s receptors from absorbing the chemicals and thereby reducing the “high.”

Unfortunately, the vaccine doesn’t do anything to fight withdrawal symptoms. Now all some scientist needs to come up with is methadone for coke.
