I hope you were being facetious. Making sure some idiot doesn't make what should be an obvious choice not to infect themselves with disease-ridden needles to push toxins into themselves is not worth anyone's "sacrifice."  There's a clear 2-pronged approach to this:  The state needs to make pushing these things as criminal as murder-- make the incentive not to push drugs to people more appealing than the money they would otherwise make from such a transaction.

Secondly-- full and open ostracizing of those who use drugs w/ total loss of their minor children, if they have any.  Loving families wishing to adopt should be placed on a list and if a would-be parent even looks at drugs, they will lose their children. Again- the incentive not to use (i.e., ones children) is already enough for rational people not to use drugs.  I don't know the reasons why people use, and I don't care.  They can sort out their stupid reasons without sacrificing their amazing children.
