They are drugs, what are you on about? He clearly cracks them open and drops them into the crack pipe when he's watching the game with the two guys who he arrests at the end.

SPOILER ALERT
It is drugs. She gives him a handful of capsules that contain some type of drug (I'm assuming coke). These are the same capsules that Keitel uses in one of the first scenes of the film as he "chases" the drug dealer (whose apartment he's now at) and bites the capsule in half and spills out the contents to snort/smoke/whatever. I don't know what she says but Grandma - who's seen them come and go - can easily tell he's a junkie so
I don't know what she says though.
PS If I remember correctly, Keitel gets the rosary beads from the nun (during their confrontation in the church). -

They don't make downers any more, except maybe a special order of barbituates for Michael Jackson before he bought the farm. They're too lethal, that's what killed a lot of famous people back in the 60's like Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland. Xanax is the replacement as it is less toxic. Remember, the punk took the coke Keitel's character stole and cooked it into crack and packaged it up into small individual street size packets. She was probably just making sure he had "one for the road" to make him happy. After all he was the one who kept them in business.

I was always pretty sure it was change. Coins. I think there is even a sound like pocket change on the soundtrack to indicate this
Where's the evidence it was drugs? And why would she give him drugs, when it's obvious from looking at him that he can get drugs. -

It's pretty obvious they are pills since, in the next scene, he takes them out, dumps their contents into a crack pipe, and smokes them with the two rapists at the end. Did no one see that?

She meant "cuidate" more as in "take care of yourself". She pretty much said "Here, I have something for you; a little gift. Take care of yourself, because you are a good person", or something like that. I'm assuming she gave him the pills to make him feel better. Probably some prescription pills.

Crack or freebase, neither is known as being particularly good for your health. Why do you suppose a kindly mother figure is doling this out as a "favor"? What is Ferrara trying to say with this?
Especially since, IIRC, the apartment is adorned with pics of Jesus and angels, as is the cigar box.
