Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Prenatal exposure to cocaine has been associated with small but potentially adverse effects on cognitive ability, including attention, memory, and language skills. These effects may be seen even in children who were not born addicted to cocaine, and can persist into adolescence and adulthood. Chronic nosebleeds and damage to nasal cartilage are physical effects of cocaine use, but are not specifically linked to prenatal exposure. The long-term effects of prenatal cocaine exposure are not solely dependent upon genetic vulnerabilities in the child.
