By and large, do recreational drugs work as aphrodisiacs?


Many recreational drugs, such as alcohol and marijuana, are believed to enhance sexual performance.
However, none of the popular drugs touted as aphrodisiacs—including amphetamines, barbiturates, cantharides ("Spanish fly"), cocaine, LSD and other psychedelics, marijuana, amyl nitrite ("poppers"), and L-dopa (a medication used to treat Parkinson's disease)—is truly a sexual stimulant. In fact, these drugs often interfere with normal sexual response.
