What Do Drugs Do To The Body?

What do drugs do to the body on the inside? Drugs are chemicals that make changes to the makeup of the human body. Drugs affect the brain; the brain is what controls the way you feel. So the drugs make the brain send certain messages to make you feel a certain way. Chemical messengers made by drugs can send wrong messages from the brain and make you see, hear, and feel things that aren’t real and doing things that you normally would not do. Eventually, people will start to develop a tolerance toward the drug they use. Some believe that this is their body accepting the drug, but in reality it is the drug killing the parts of their body that is used to resist the drug. To get the feeling again, some people will try using more of the drug which could result in an overdose. Drugs can cause liver damage, make your body unable to fight off infection, your heart beat too fast, cause your body temperature to get so high that it causes damage to your brain, cause a stroke, and even death.
