Admirable woman last to go for drug (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

heroin

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

'for drug' is the definition.
(heroin is a kind of drug)

'admirable woman last to' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'woman' could be 'her' (her refers to a woman) and 'her' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'go' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for heroin that I've seen before include "Highly addictive illegal drug" , "Class A drug" , "Narcotic powder derived from morphine" , "Highly addictive narcotic" , "Highly addictive morphine derivative" .)
