Yes, addiction is a prominent theme of the movie. Characters give each other pills, a few times feeding them, but no one is non-concensually drugged

There is a brief scene in which one of the twins (I don't recall) is walking down the street at night and v*. There are no clear warnings, and it was enough to trigger my emetophobia. The scene is in the second half of the movie and only lasts a few seconds.

One character believes that all his patients are mutants, but reality is still portrayed the same. He becomes a little obsessive about it, so it may be unnerving to some people.

In the intro there are gynecological illustrations in black and white, but no blood. Later there is a surgery scene, a scene where one character eviscerates another with her teeth, and at the end one of the character's mutilates the stomach area of another (there isn't a closeup but you see it in the background) and there's a few shots of bloody surgical equipment, one of them being a closeup. At the end one of the characters has some blood on his hands and clothes
