No, methamphetamine (i.e. meth) is a different drug from cocaine. Basically, both drugs do the same thing and have the same symptoms. However, cocaine has a quicker effect because it crosses the blood-brain barrier faster; it also lasts for a shorter period of time (20 minutes as opposed to a few hours for amphetamines). Cocaine is not an ingredient of meth, but sometimes dealers mix the two because meth is cheaper and no one would necessarily know the difference. I would say coke is worse 'cause since it has a quicker effect, it would more likely cause an overdose and cause addiction.

Although these are both psycho stimulants, the syndromes associated with the use of these drugs are really quite different.
Cocaine can cause strokes, heart attacks and kidney failure, primarily by causing constriction of the small arteries feeding blood to this part of the system. It also appears that cocaine can increase the “stickiness” of small factors circulated in the blood called platelets that cause clotting. Strokes and heart attacks occur when vessels constrict to the point that oxygen cannot be supplied and/or clot formation occurs in these vessels.
In my experience, the kidney failure associated with cocaine has usually been reversible. The syndrome of heavy cocaine use, particularly smoked volatilized cocaine, causes increasing paranoia and dysphoria.
This is one of the interesting things about heavy cocaine use. When someone initiates a binge on this drug, they know they are going to feel awful. They intellectually know they are never going to feel as good as that first hit. Yet they are compelled to compulsively pursue that drug in spite of feeling worse each subsequent hit. Ultimately, they find themselves locked in a room not having slept for several days, often hallucinating and hearing persecutory voices.
The typical syndrome that my patients described to me is this: looking out their curtains and seeing uniformed officers running between trees and bushes, which of course are there to get them.
The syndrome crystal methamphetamine develops is entirely different. While with cocaine it is a very acute, sudden onset of paranoia, often within two to three days of heavy smoking it resolves in one to two days. With using crystal meth two to three times a week, there is a slow progressive paranoia, usually focused on important close relationships such as family, friends, neighbors and co-workers. Very elaborate delusions will develop where the user becomes convinced that people are involved in a very elaborate scheme to harm them.
Obviously, this can be terribly disruptive to relationships and people often become violent when they continue to use speed. That violence is directed at the people they believe are trying to harm them, mainly people that they would care about very much. The paranoia is very slow to resolve, sometimes lasting for weeks or months, and it is very difficult to treat. It does not respond to the usual anti-psychotic medications.
I have seen situations where the psychosis became so severe the people actually start having visual hallucinations. The child actor, Todd Bridges, told me a story where he started seeing little green men coming up from the floorboards of his home. So he began tearing up the floor of his home to look for what he called “the factory that my grandmother had put under the house to produce these green men to come get me.” Ultimately, he got a gun and began firing at these visual hallucinations.
The medical complications of amphetamine include strokes, seizures (cocaine being the most common regular abuse to cause seizure), heart attacks, and heart rhythm disturbances. If you remember the actor River Phoenix’s death, that was a rather typical amphetamine demise
NO meth is definitely worse in my opinion.
It can be smoked. But meth is home made. Very dangerous and very illegal
