Crossword Genius

Information on daughter, drugged (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

doped

'drugged' is the definition.
('doped' can be a synonym of 'drugged')

'information on daughter' is the wordplay.
'information' becomes 'dope' (dope is a kind of information**).
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'daughter' becomes 'd'.
'dope'+'d'='DOPED'

(Other definitions for doped that I've seen before include "Under the influence of narcotics" , "Nobbled" , "Drugged" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
