"Tusi," also known as "pink cocaine" or "tucibi," is a synthetic drug that has gained popularity in some regions, particularly in Latin America. Despite its nickname, it is not related to actual cocaine. The drug is often marketed as a recreational drug, usually in the form of pink powder or crystals, which gives it its nickname.CompositionTusi's composition can vary significantly, but it often includes a mixture of different substances. The primary components typically include:
  1. MDMA (Ecstasy): This is a psychoactive drug primarily used for recreational purposes. It is known for its ability to induce feelings of euphoria, emotional closeness, and enhanced sensory perception.
  2. Ketamine: An anesthetic that is also used recreationally for its dissociative effects, including hallucinations and a sense of detachment from reality.
  3. Other Substances: Due to its illicit nature, tusi can contain a variety of other substances, including caffeine, amphetamines, or other adulterants. The exact composition can be unpredictable and varies depending on the source.
EffectsThe effects of tusi can be diverse due to its mixed composition. Common effects reported by users include:
  • Euphoria: A feeling of intense happiness and well-being.
  • Increased Sociability: Users may feel more outgoing and connected to others.
  • Enhanced Sensory Perception: Colors, sounds, and tactile sensations may be perceived more intensely.
  • Dissociation: A feeling of detachment from one's body or surroundings, primarily due to the ketamine content.
  • Hallucinations: Visual or auditory hallucinations can occur, especially at higher doses.
Risks and Side EffectsThe use of tusi carries several risks and potential side effects:
  • Unpredictable Effects: Due to its variable composition, the effects can be unpredictable and vary from one batch to another.
  • Health Risks: The combination of different substances can increase the risk of adverse reactions, including cardiovascular issues, seizures, and psychological effects such as anxiety, paranoia, or psychosis.
  • Addiction: Regular use can lead to dependence and addiction, particularly to the MDMA or ketamine components.
  • Overdose: There is a risk of overdose, especially since users may not know the exact contents or potency of the drug they are taking.


In this episode, we take a look at the spike in consumption and distribution of Tusi in the wake of the Diddy raid.
