Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.

Decisions about treatment for patients, including those suffering from drug addiction, are a matter for the NHS and individual clinicians, not the Government or House of Commons.

As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.
