High or drunk (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stoned

This clue is a double definition.

'high' is the first definition.
(on drugs)

'drunk' is the second definition.
(I know that stoned is a more specific form of the attribute drunk)

(Other definitions for stoned that I've seen before include "Slangily drunk or drugged" , "Completely under the influence" , "attacked with missiles" , "with jewels" , "Stephen thus martyred" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
