Texas Drug Information
 Cocaine continues to be readily available in Texas. Statewide price ranges for powder cocaine based on data from select sites from July-December 2008 were $50-$100/gram, $400-$1,000/ounce, and $11,000-$28,000/kilogram. Statewide price ranges for crack cocaine were $10-$50/rock (with $10-$20 being the most common price), $350-$1,000/ounce, and $14,000-$26,000/kilogram.
The predominant form of heroin in Texas is black tar, which has a dark, gummy, oily texture that can be diluted with water and injected. The price black tar heroin has decreased over the years. Depending on the location, black tar heroin sold on the street for $5-$20/paper, balloon, or capsule, $100-$300/gram, $800-$4,000/ounce, and $25,000-$62,000/kilogram.
Methamphetamine indicators have changed since 2005, with supplies down, prices increasing, and purity decreasing. Statewide, the purity of methamphetamine dropped from 56% in 2004 to 33% in 2008 because it is being cut with methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). Pure methamphetamine from Mexico, which typically sold for $18,000–$20,000/pound, sold for $18,500/pound when “cut” with MSM.
Club drugs remain readily available in North Texas. The most frequently abused club drug is ecstasy (MDMA). Ecstasy is often used in combination with other drugs, and the increase in use and abuse of the drug is demonstrated in the increases in the numbers of clients seeking treatment.
The diversion of prescription drugs continues to be a significant enforcement issue in Texas. Hydrocodone, alprazolam, and benzodiazepene products continue to comprise the majority of prescription controlled drugs abused in North Texas. Additionally, OxyContin abuse is on the increase, with most illegal prescriptions being written by pain management doctors. Mexican border town pharmacies remain an important source of illegal pharmaceuticals seized in the Houston Field Division.
