These are the community policies for LINE Webtoons if that's the site you're asking about. https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/operationalPolicies93

It doesn't really mention drug use, but they do touch upon graphic content which could potentially apply to drug use as well.

" We do not allow graphic depictions of gratuitous violence, or content that promote acts of violence. Examples of prohibited content include:

• Brutal, extended, graphic acts of violence
• Depiction of sadism, or glorification/promotion of inflicting harm on others
• Glorification or promotion of self-harm "

It's a good idea to have a content warning at the start of the episode for your readers.

Otherwise, it's fine as long as it's not gorey.

often sites are against certain things like drugs if you're promoting and encouraging it. If that's not the case you should be good. But like said above a warning is always good.

One of my MC uses drugs.
I put a content warning at the start of my comic and a 18+ label on the cover.
The comic does ok so far and wasn't poked by admins.
I don't know if it's case by case thing, maybe some comics did suffer a ban, but I haven't heard about it.

I don't know, actually what to say websites usually don't tolerate post, comments about drugs so keep that in mind. But if you are so stubborn, you can try, you never know, maybe something good can happen, because I know a lot of websites that are positive about weed, I even found one about THC Gummies 17, can you imagine that. So just try it. I want to wish a big good luck with your chapter on your abortion, you will definitely need that.
