11:44Now PlayingA drug is a substance that, when introduced to the body, produces some non-nutritional physiological effect. This includes medicinal drugs as well as recreational drugs, and they take many forms. Focusing predominately on medicinal drugs, what is the history of our relationship with these substances?
