Answer: The drug will be poisonous

Explanation:

The human cells contains chemicals which also performs glycolysis; the drug might also harm human beings if the chemist should proceed on manufacturing and using the drug on humans.

This simply means the drug will react with the chemicals in the human cell to result in a poison which will kill the user.
