I think Cuaron was being symbolic here. I took it to mean he was equating 
Lupin's 'condition' with like someone who is dependent on drugs.   I don't  
think he meant it as a literal drug addict, but rather as someone who has a 
physical need for a substance - in Lupin's case, it's the wolfsbane potion to 
counteract the transformation. He comes across as a sickly person, ie., a drug 
addict.
Anyway, that's how I read it - just using our terminology to make a 
connection to a character.
But that's just me ;-)

That's an interesting view. Didn't think of it that way. I thought Cuaron was 
just implying that Lupin looked a bit effeminate (though I don't really see 
that), and was also a bit whacky. Who knows?!
