The answer

Using drugs in any form is forbidden and is considered a major sin due to their harm being more severe than that of alcohol on the user, and because they impair the mind, harm health, and corrupt morals. An exception is made for their use out of extreme necessity, such as for medicinal purposes in surgical operations, or to alleviate severe pain, or to save a life. It is not permissible to cultivate or sell drugs, even if the company will use them for legitimate medical purposes, because that is considered cooperation in sin and aggression.
