File talk:Drug danger and dependence.png

Is "danger" physical? Or psychical? Or many things together?

This chart refers to the danger of overdose, or taking a lethal dose of the substance. For example you'd have to take 10 times more alcohol compared to the amount that'll get you drunk, but 1000 times more marijuana compared to the amount to get you high, active dose/lethal dose. In effect it tells the acute toxicity of these substances.

are there any other sources apart from that one website that can be used to verify the legitimacy of the information used to create this file? a file like this has the potential to be contreversial so the more evidence (and thus: sources) the better. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sean The Conspiracy (talkcontribs) 23:09, 23 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Marijuana should be changed to cannabis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.228.18.129 (talk) 19:19, 27 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
