Sherlock Holmes used a seven percent solution of cocaine quite often. And there is a questionable mention of opium use I discovered while reading the "The man with the twisted lip". Holmes was prescribed morphine by a physician after being wounded in "The Adventure of the Illustrious Client."

Sherlock Holmes smoked shag tobacco, kept in the toe of a Persian slipper in his pipe. He kept his cigars in the coal-scuttle. He also smoked cigarettes on occasion. He called a very difficult challenge a 'three pipe problem.' More correctly Sherlock Holmes smoked "Black Shag", Shag is the cut of the tobacco. Others Holmes may have smoked as they are in a recreation of Holmes study in England- Arcadian Mixture, Birdseye (Watson's favorite) Odd one was Honeydew ( Irish Style) offered to Holmes by Susan Cushing. He often smoked cigarettes when out and about, and once in a while he smoked a cigar. The pipe was reserved for smoking at home.
Homes Holmes came from a class of moneyed people who did not have to 'work' for a living. As he was a restless person who needed to 'do' something, he set out to solve crimes. However, if he didn't find an interesting case he indulged in opium dens, cocaine, science experiments & violin playing. Holmes older brother,Mycroft,was (by his own words) too lazy to do anything.

In 1839, the Emperor of China was Daoguang, who ruled from 1820 to 1850. While opium was a significant problem in China during his reign, there is no concrete evidence that the Emperor himself was addicted to opium. Instead, he was known for his efforts to combat the opium trade and its negative effects on Chinese society, particularly through the actions of officials like Lin Zexu, who sought to suppress opium use and trade.
