(noun) Contraction of "dopaminergenic," used as slang among drug users initially to refer to compounds stimulating the release of dopamine from cortical neurons, or inhibition of their reuptake from synaptic interstices, such as cocaine, amphetamine and their analogs. The term's use has been extended more generally to include any euphoria-inducing compound (opioids, cannabis, etc.) although the term's use as a referent to those families of drugs has varied over time, as it has with regional popularity and availability.

A word that means any kind of drug including marijuana, heroin, meth, cocaine...

It's been used for a long time to describe any kind of illegal drug.

Some people think it only refers to heroin. This is incorrect as many rappers and people who live in drug infested areas call marijuana, crack and heroin dope and those who sell them as dope dealers.

When referring to drugs, the word "Dope" means Heroin. In the '50s and early '60s, straight people referred to pot as dope but when heroin gained popularity the meaning changed to mean heroin specifically.

Referring to other drugs like crack, coke, speed, meth etc as dope is an incorrect use of the word and dilutes its true meaning.

Technically,dope is dopamine.

Dopamine is a biochemical,and occurs bodies of living things, dopamine is one of the chemicals responsible forrunner's high.

But you can 'take' dope, by consumption of drugs like marujuana,which make you high by raising your dopamine levels.

Though it is possible to get unadulterated dope,it's very difficult, and worth a fortune, and though it won't harm you.
(1. you won't come across it often enough to get very addicted. 2.Addiction is the only recorded bad side-effect, but too much in one go will probebly kill you, anything can, even air.)
It's probebly illegal because it's urgently needed for treatment of patients in hospital.
If you take dope, your body will not be able to make it anymore,but it's essential to your emotional wellbeing and the workings of your nervous system, so if your quitting please get professional help.
