From French drogue.

Pronunciation

Noun

drog c

  1. a drug, a narcotic
    I våldets Sverige får hederliga medborgare flytta åt sidan, i rädsla för att va' nästa som drabbats av våldsverkaren. Med vapen i hand, med drogögon mitt i ansiktet, så vet vi inte vad den här personen är kapabel att göra.
    In a Sweden plagued by violence , honest citizens get to move aside, out of fear of being the next person to have been struck by the assailant . With weapon in hand, with drug eyes right in the middle of the face , we don't know what this person is capable of doing. ((in)famous quote from a speech by Swedish ex-prime minister Fredrik Reinfeldt)
Usage notes

Läkemedel or medicin are the usual terms for drugs used medically. Drog leans heavily towards illegal recreational drugs in Swedish.
