Cocaethylene is the ethyl ester of benzoylecgonine. Cocaethylene is formed in the liver after concurrent use of cocaine and alcohol. Cocaethylene works by blocking the dopamine transporter on dopaminergic presynaptic nerve terminals in the brain. It increases dopamine synaptic content, provoking enhanced postsynaptic receptor stimulation, resulting in euphoria, reinforcement, and self-administration. Compared to cocaine, which is a methyl ether of benzoylecgonine, cocaethylene has three to five times larger half-life in plasma. Cocaethylene is associated with seizures, liver damage and compromised the functioning of the immune system. It carries an 18-25 fold increase in risk for immediate death compared to cocaine alone.
