What is the difference between man-made and natural medicines?

Medicine is a natural herbal and/or herb that cures

sickness and disease. Drugs are man made concoctions

that are brewed up in a laboratory. A drug could be

plant compound that is altered by chemicals to make

something new. Example Ephedrine is natural and comes

from Mai Huang, when you alter it and create Meth you

just created a drug. Now if you smoke or eat marijuana

you used a medicine. You do not alter the compounds in

marijuana so it is not a drug. A drug is anything you

can change or alter the molecular structure to create

a new compound. Whereas Medicine is natural and herbal. Comments
