In The Tragedy of Macbeth, Act II, Scene ii, Lady Macbeth’s purpose in drugging the servants is so they will sleep through King Duncan’s murder.

<h3 /><h3>Tragedy of Macbeth</h3>
  • The maids were given drugs by Lady Macbeth. However, back then, the word "drugs" was used to refer to medicine in general; it wasn't until the 19th century that the word came to have a more negative meaning.
  • Lady Macbeth dismisses his fears and sees that he has brought the guards' daggers with him, rather than planting them at the scene of the crime. She tells him to return the daggers but he refuses and Lady Macbeth goes instead.

Hence, the objective of drugging the servants in The Tragedy of Macbeth, Act II, Scene ii, is for them to fall asleep during King Duncan's death.
