I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'arbitration about 100 drugs' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'arbitration about 100' is the wordplay.
'arbitration' becomes 'mediation' (synonyms).
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'100' becomes 'C' (Roman numeral).
'mediation' going around 'c' is 'MEDICATION'.

Can you help me to learn more?
