You have a asked a question that has a multi-faceted answer.
Generally, prescription 'drugs' are controlled substances. Their use, production, distribution and possession are all controlled by law. A prescription from a licensed doctor makes a controlled substance legal. The difference depends on such factors as how they were produced, distributed and in whose possession they exist. If you obtain powerful painkillers by a prescription written by your doctor. Your drugs are legal. If you buy those same painkillers on the street, they are illegal drugs. Also, any concoction made by unlicensed persons and sold on the street is an illegal drug although laws vary from state to state and country to country.
In the UK, some drugs such as alcohol, tobacco, and caffeine are legal. Prescription medications are also legal when prescribed by a healthcare professional. However, possession and use of illegal drugs, such as heroin, cocaine, and marijuana, are prohibited.
Legal refugees are individuals who have been granted refugee status by a government or international organization and have the legal right to reside in a certain country. Illegal refugees, on the other hand, are individuals who enter a country without authorization or proper documentation and do not have legal permission to stay.
It depends. Legal (prescription and non-prescription) drugs are generally sold and in pharmacies. Some people view alcohol and cigarettes (nicotine) as legal drugs. The sale of drugs such as marijuana, cocaine, heroin etc. is illegal and, depending on the amounts being sold, can lead to extensive jail sentences and/or fines. not to mention the confiscation of any money and/or property as the proceeds of crime.
Using illegal drugs can lead to addiction, health problems, legal consequences, financial issues, and strained relationships. It can also impair judgment, increase the risk of accidents, and have detrimental effects on mental health.

Legal drugs are drugs that are perscribed just for you and you take them as it is written on your perscription. Illegal drugs are any drug you can buy on the street The question asks about 'acts' not 'drugs'. An illegal act is against the law, a legal act is permitted.

i think it's because drugs is illegal and beer are legal and the alcohol is different
There is no legal age to take drugs. Hence the name "illegal drugs". It doesn't matter what age a person is, drugs are illegal unless prescribed by a doctor. Marijuana is legal medically in very few states and illegal for fun everywhere.
In terms of the number of different drugs that are available, there are vastly more legal drugs than illegal drugs. I would also say that legal drugs are used more frequently and by more people than illegal drugs are.
Legal drugs are legal, illegal drugs are not. Also some drugs that are illegal on the street are legal if you have a serious disease such as codeine. It is a strong pain killer that is usually given to patients that have recently undergone surgery.
People who do not use drugs are not at risk for legal penalties related to the use of illegal drugs.
An illegal drug is a drug which is prohibited by the law. An example of this is cannabis, a popular illegal drug. If you were caught supplying illegal drugs you could get a lengthy sentence. Up to a life sentence for supplying and about 3-7 years for possession. A normal drug is a drug that is normally legal or prescribed. Coffee is a legal drug. The difference is that one of the drugs will put you in prison and one won't.
