A drug is a substance which has an negative effect on health but is taken through addiction or a desire to fit in. The term "drug" is also sometimes used to refer to, beneficial medicine (such as antibiotics) or certain other legal chemicals such as alcohol, caffeine, or nicotine.

Illegal drugs are drugs which are prohibited by law. This is often based on the fact that these drugs cause damage to a person's brain and other organs, and that the drugs are highly addictive. Many celebrities have become addicted to drugs that killed them; many more non-celebrities have also died at a young age from drug addiction.[1]
