Somewhat tl;dr version below.

Heroin, crack cocaine and methamphetamine, or crystal meth, were the most lethal to individuals... But overall, alcohol outranked all other substances... Experts said alcohol scored so high because it is so widely used and has devastating consequences not only for drinkers but for those around them... Alcohol damages nearly all organ systems... it is also connected to higher death rates and is involved in a greater percentage of crime than most other drugs, including heroin...

Experts said the study should prompt countries to reconsider how they classify drugs.
