Drug
abuse has a wide range of definitions related to
taking a
psychoactive drug
or
performance enhancing drug
for a non-therapeutic or non-medical effect. Some of
the most commonly abused drugs include
alcohol,
amphetamines,
barbiturates,
benzodiazepines,
cocaine,
methaqualone,
and
opium alkaloids.
Use of these drugs may lead to criminal penalty in
addition to possible physical, social, and
psychological harm, both strongly depending on local
jurisdiction.
