pill poppers

Casual tablet takers

Pill poppers are people who take pills habitually, especially prescription drugs or recreational substances in tablet form.

The term implies casual or excessive use rather than medically supervised treatment: The clinic was full of pill poppers looking for their next fix.

Often dismissive or judgmental in tone.
