That's a good question.
Morphine is a chemical that when used by a doctor or nurse to treat a patient, is a MEDICINE.
If a person uses the chemical morphine illegally, then morphine is a DRUG.
Whether morphine is a medicine or a drug depends on a person's point of view and circumstances. All can agree that it is a chemical though.

Is strychnine an antidote for morphine?
No, strychnine is not an antidote for morphine. In fact, strychnine is a highly toxic substance that acts as a stimulant to the central nervous system and can cause severe convulsions and death. The appropriate antidote for morphine overdose is naloxone, which is an opioid antagonist that can quickly reverse the effects of morphine. Using strychnine in this context would be extremely dangerous and is not recommended.
Is hereoin a stimulant?
This is actually an interesting question. Heroin is morphine/opium. Up to a point it seems stimulative, can make your brain go real fast. Heroin can be very dreamy and fast at the same time. (check out the crazy fast music made back in the day when all the jazz players were on heroin). Also it is an analgesic which when you don't hurt you can be up and moving around more. Technically morphine however is a CNS depressant not a stimulant. Take to much and you go to sleep.
