Drug abuse is the habitual misuse of a drug. This includes the use of illegal drugs or the use of prescription medications for non-prescribed purposes. It can also include the use of substances such as nicotine and/or alcohol. Some people who abuse drugs become addicted. This involves the uncontrollable craving and misuse of drugs, as well as other self-destructive behaviors. Some of the most commonly abused drugs are marijuana, prescription medications (such as sedatives), cocaine and heroin. Alcohol abuse, in contrast, is characterized by a problematic pattern of drinking in which drinking causes recurrent and significant adverse consequences. Those consequences may include: failure to fulfill major responsibilities such as work, school or domestic tasks, recurrent drinking in hazardous situations (such as while driving), recurrent drinking-related legal problems (such as arrests for disorderly conduct while drinking), continued drinking despite persistent or recurrent social or interpersonal problems caused or worsened by drinking (such as fights or marital arguments)
