I'm going to be that guy. Alcohol is a drug, no two ways around it.

  Medicinally, yes, but law usually separates those two.

    "Medicinally" is the only real definition. Was the law written by pharmacologists? Distinction made by law is generally arbitrary and based on emotional response to something. If it were otherwise, law would not need to be written to make the distinction. The people who wrote the laws about drugs were, and still are, incredibly wrong about how things should be structured. We need to have regulation written involving people who know the minutiae of how the things work that they're regulating, not people who are scared of the word "chemicals" because they don't understand that everything is made of chemicals It's all bullshit written by clowns and the distinction in law should not be taken seriously. Alcohol is a drug, full stop. Legislators trying to make this distinction in law are on the same level of stupidity as the time they tried to pass a law on the mathematical constant of pi by way of a bill on squaring a circle https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Pi_Bill https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Pi_Bill
