Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cost of the drug is not typically considered a direct factor in the development of addiction. Factors like the dose used, the route of administration, the speed of onset of the drug's effects, and interactions with other substances are directly related to how addictive a substance might be. The price of the drug might influence accessibility but does not inherently affect the physiological or psychological potential for addiction.
