It could be any kind of drugs; some more profitable ones, can subsidize medicinal ones.

For example, I used to sell MDMA to the tourists around here, to pay for my and the girls' cannabis. One could see a future, where estradiol, spiro, and insulin is made on the island, along with psychedelics; the sale of psychedelics for recreational use overseas could subsidize the free distribution of other medicines.

LSD-25 and related compounds would be ideal because of the ease of hiding and storing them long term, and the lack of issues in charging a small fee for using them (would be cheaper than the people's other options, likely, and it is mostly used by consumer for recreational rather than therapeutic purposes). The difficulty of the synthesis would be the primary problem to solve, as well as avoiding humidity damage in transit.
