Socially acceptable drugs are drugs that can be prescribed by doctors and/or circulated throughout the community commonly and legally.

Examples of these are Tylenol, Acetaminophen, Aleve, and Muscinex

Socially Unacceptable drugs are drugs that are illegal. Such as Marijuana, Methamphetamine, Heroin, Ecstasy, Illegal Amphetamines, and in some cases, Methadone.

What is the name of five socially and accepted drugs?

The statement at the bottom of this post or "answer" is sort of right but horribly wrong. In the context of socially accepted, all drugs advertised on TV are socially accepted. That is without doubt a fundamental truth. You will also notice that tobacco products are not allowed to be advertised on TV while nicotine products are. Nicotine is really what smokers are after and it can be classified as a drug but nicotine is only advertised as socially acceptable as long as it is in the form of treatment. It is impossible to answer your question in regards to the top five though. I could make an argument that motrin and nyquil are socially accepted drugs. If you take mr tough guys response below and apply it those drugs then you will basically have this: "the five socially accepted drugs are none of them becomes doing drugs means that you are weak and pathetic and you cannot escape your everyday problems like having a cold or the flu like a real man and drugs will force you to spend all of your money on items that are only killing you so whoever asked this question is a worthless human being who wants to sell his or her own life for a small momentary feeling of relief from the symptoms of being ill" Original Answer: "the five socially accepted drugs are none of them becomes doing drugs means that you are weak and pathetic and you cannot escape your everyday problems like a real man and drugs will force you to spend all of your money on items that are only killing you so whoever asked this question is a worthless human being who wants to sell his or her own life for a small momentary feeling of pleasure"
