Krokodil - The Flesh Eating Drug Reaches America





EXCLUSIVE: The sisters who are the first proof that Russian flesh-eating 'cannibal' drug Krokodil IS in the U.S.


  • Amber and Angie Neitzel, from Joliet, Illinois, say they have been using the potent alternative to heroin - which originated in Russia - for around a year
  • The drug's devastating effect can clearly be seen by comparing pictures on their Facebook pages taken just a few months before they tried Krokodil
  • They say they had no idea they were taking Krokodil - a mixture of codeine and toxic ingredients including gasoline and lighter fluid 
  • Leading drugs specialist Dr Abhin Singla, confirmed to MailOnline that the sisters had abused Krokodil after Angie was among five addicts he treated for the drug in his small hospital in the last few weeks
  • Dr Singla is in no doubt because their telltale scaly sores - which gave the drug it's name - are different from other addicts 
  • Despite these gruesome reports and several more examples spanning the country in states including Utah and Arizona the DEA initially played down concerns, saying they are 'not seeing cases' of abuse of the substance
  • Amber said: 'My boyfriend actually had maggots coming out of his leg. I know people don't want to hear stuff like that, but it is really happening out here'
