Emma: Drugs go by a variety of different names including their generic name, brand name, and street names. “Uppers and downers” are informal drug classifications used to describe how a drug affects the central nervous system. “Uppers” are what’s known as stimulants while “downers” are what is classified as depressants. These two slang terms encompass a wide number of different substances, some legal, some not. As their contrasting names imply, uppers and downers have opposing effects on the body.

Something that both types of drugs have in common? Uppers and downers can be addictive and highly dangerous. Let’s take a closer look at uppers, downers, and why exactly they have these names.
