Whoonga
Whoonga (also known as nyaope or wonga) is a form of black tar heroin, possibly mixed with other substances, that has come into widespread use in South Africa since 2009. Its use is concentrated in the impoverished townships of Durban, although it is claimed to be appearing in other places in South Africa as well.Whoonga dealers will often introduce the drug as a super-powerful Marijuana blend. As discussed the main addictive component is heroin. Dealers add powdered substances into the mix to bulk up the size, profiting more from sale of the diluted drug. Mixes range from actual pharmaceutical drugs, cleaning chemicals, to any powder-based substance that can be found. Whoonga/Nayope is very addictive because of the heroin content and the more dangerous a problem as there is no way of telling what other volatile, poisonous or inert elements are put into the Nyaope mix sold on the street, the ingredients vary from place to place and dealer to dealer The first scientific publications of whoonga use containing ARVs was in 2013, then 2014.The drug is sometimes said to contain antiretroviral drugs particularly efavirenz of the type prescribed to treat HIV, but analysis of samples shows no such content, and police have remarked that dealers are known to add "all sorts of stuff" to a drug to bulk it out. This adulteration was the subject of Getting High on HIV Medication, a 2014 documentary video by Vice correspondent Hamilton Morris.
