What is the drink that the Friar gives Juliet the night before the marriage arranged by her father is to take place?

It's a drink that makes her appear dead for 48 hours, so it must have been some sort of poison. I don't think that sort of potions actually exists though.

No, I wouldn't say they were. Juliet did defy her father by her marriage to Romeo, but that wasn't rebellious as we know it today. It was normal for young women to have arranged marriages to older men, but if there hadn't been a feud with Romeo's family her father may had consented to a marriage.

Romeo and juliet draw conclusions about why people may have had arranged marriages?
It would be helpful if you would write your sentence correctly. Are you asking whether Romeo and Juliet, the characters in the play, consider the social advantages and disadvantages of arranged marriages? No, they don't. Juliet is faced with a problem because she has arranged one marriage for herself while her father has arranged a different one for her. The problem comes because Juliet and her father have not agreed on who will arrange her marriage, with the result that she cannot satisfy both without becoming a bigamist. (The Nurse was OK with the bigamy solution.) But Juliet only sees the problem from her personal standpoint; she never considers the broader issue. And neither does the play, explicitly, although fathers arranging marriages for their daughters to obnoxious twits is such a common theme in Shakespeare (The Two Gentlemen of Verona, Cymbeline, The Merry Wives of Windsor and A Midsummer Night's Dream, to name the most obvious ones) that clearly there was a conventional literary bias against marriages arranged by the parents. This comes from the Commedia Dell'arte, where Pantaloon was constantly trying to marry his daughter against her will to some twit instead of the hero she is in love with, and usually gets foiled in his attempt to arrange the marriage.
