�            The name “hero­in” was coined by the Ger­man phar­ma­ceu­ti­cal
com­pa­ny Bay­er in the late 1800s. It was tak­en from the Ger­man word,
hero­isch, which means “strong” or “hero­ic.”
 
�            The once quite pop­u­lar ben­zo­di­azepine, Val­i­um, was named for the
Latin word vale, which means “good­night.” Val­i­um is known to put
peo­ple out for the night.
 
�       Scopo­lamine is often pre­scribed for motion sick­ness, but some have
found more nefar­i­ous uses for it. There have been 50,000 cas­es of it
used in Colum­bia alone where it’s been used to ren­der vic­tims
uncon­scious and rob them.
 
�       At the end of 2020, the glob­al phar­ma­ceu­ti­cal indus­try was val­ued at
$1.27 tril­lion. That’s a big jump from 2001 when it was val­ued at only
$390 bil­lion!
 
�       Hal­lu­cino­genic psilo­cy­bin mush­rooms were tak­en by many dif­fer­ent
Amer­i­can Indi­an peo­ples as part of reli­gious rit­u­als. The Aztecs even
referred to one species as the “divine mush­room.”
 
�            Nut­meg con­tains a chem­i­cal called myris­ticin that has psy­choac­tive

to feel any kind of high.
 
�            Cock­roach­es are a com­mon pre­scrip­tion for burns, ulcers, and

�       It’s com­mon­ly believed that the Nether­lands was the first coun­try to
legal­ize recre­ation­al cannabis use, but Uruguay was the first to do so

zom­bies were cre­at­ed by a com­bi­na­tion of tetrodotox­in from a
puffer­fish and bufo­tox­in from a toad. They were then “rean­i­mat­ed”
with a nat­ur­al drug, datu­ra.
 
�       The US FDA declared cig­a­rettes as “drug deliv­ery devices” in 1995.

�       Rimon­a­bant is a pre­scrip­tion drug used to treat severe obe­si­ty that hit

�       Hero­in was mar­ket­ed and sold as a cough sup­pres­sant in the US from
