Hello,

It is not safe. Better to leave it it will induce addiction it will be a problem for de-addiction. In a condition of hallucination you can create a problem for your corneal plantation it may reduce your immunity and harm the transplantation.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
