Drug

Droga

A drug is any drug or active ingredient of a drug, an element of natural biological origin or a product derived from it by various methods, or artificially produced substance, which produces effects on the central nervous system by modifying the mood or producing pleasure, and May have potential for abuse. This term is also used, especially in the field of medicine and pharmacology, as synonymous with active principle or drug, either by extension of the concept or due to the literal translation of the English term drug, which makes no distinction between the three terms . The original definition of WHO reflects this generic use, however, the more specific definition indicates that drug is the most appropriate term to refer to substances that are used without therapeutic purposes; Alter affective, cognitive and behavioral aspects; Can be self-administered; And may induce adaptive biological states in their users. From this last perspective, the most appropriate synonym for this definition of drug is psychoactive substance. Una droga es todo fármaco o principio activo de un medicamento, elemento de origen biológico natural o producto obtenido de él por diversos métodos, o sustancia producida artificialmente, que produce efectos en el sistema nervioso central modificando el estado de ánimo o produciendo placer, y que puede tener potencial de abuso. Este término también se utiliza, especialmente en el ámbito de la medicina y farmacología, como sinónimo de principio activo o fármaco, ya sea por extensión del concepto o debido a la traducción literal del término inglés drug, el cual no hace distinciones entre los tres términos. La definición original de la OMS refleja este uso genérico, sin embargo, la definición más específica indica que droga es el término más adecuado para referirse a sustancias que se usan sin fines terapéuticos; alteran aspectos afectivos, cognitivos y conductuales; pueden ser autoadministradas; y pueden inducir estados biológicos adaptativos en sus usuarios. Desde esta última perspectiva, el sinónimo más adecuado para esta definición de droga es sustancia psicoactiva.
