The term drugs covers many of kinds of chemical substances
which are absorbed by the body, the majority being medicines
designed to cure illness. They are manufactured from a variety of sources
which include animal and products, plants and minerals. In recent years
it has become possible to synthesise in the laboratory many drugs which
previously obtained from plants and animal products. A small number of
drugs can become addictive if taken excessively, as that is either too frequently,
or in doses larger than recommended for medical to use.

Critics say fashion photographers lack of artistic depth or integrity. Their
