I think this is actually a mechanic is Vampire: The Masquerade!

Edit: not a direct source (World of Darkness doesn't have an SRD like D&D does) but yeah, this is definitely a thing! http://theanarchstate.wikidot.com/mechanics:poisons-and-drugs

It's also a plot point in the movie "only lovers left alive", where the vampires get their blood from medical doctors who guarantee its quality.
