27 multiple choice 1 point victims of heroin overdose tend to be: long - time heroin addicts who take a larger dose in their usual setting. recreational users who take a usual dose after a long period of nondrug use. long - time heroin addicts who take their usual dose in an unusual setting. novice users who have no experience taking heroin. previous

Explanation:

Long - time heroin addicts' bodies develop a tolerance in their usual setting. When they take their usual dose in an unusual setting, the body may not be able to cope as it lacks the conditioned responses associated with the usual environment, increasing the risk of overdose. Recreational users after a long non - drug period and novice users generally take smaller amounts initially and are less likely to overdose compared to this scenario. Long - time addicts taking a larger dose in the usual setting are also less likely to overdose as their bodies are somewhat adapted to the environment.

Answer:

long - time heroin addicts who take their usual dose in an unusual setting.
