The thing is that health expenditure and legalisation are proportionally tied.

Thou who bites off the latter, increases the former in psychiatric and general healthcare.

And that's not fair on everyone else. So perhaps you should forfeit your right to free healthcare when you make that choice?

(I speak with respect to the NHS in the UK).

For ref, I'm allergic to penicillin as well. Fortunately because we have research budgets, we have other antibiotics. Perhaps expenditure on drug related problems (crime, psych, healthcare) should be diverted into that?
