It means that the speaker is requesting to be put on medication for something. "Meds" is slang for "medication" (medicine). It's usually used as a plea. For example, if someone were in pain, they might say, "Please, doc, just put me on meds."

So if someone fall in love and say "she put on meds" he means he's crazy for her or something like that?

@ael99 Never heard the phrase used like that before. If I read "she put me on meds" I would think that meant the woman put the other person on medication, as in pills, not that she makes him crazy in love. What you're suggesting is possible, but, again, I've never heard it used in that way, and it's a little bit of a stretch.

@LaMouche In this case, medication could be a drog (maybe a heavy drog)?

I'm in the U.S. It could be a heavy drug, sure, as medicines are drugs, but we normally would use "meds" to mean non-recreational drugs. For example, "The doctor's got me on lots of meds." No one—at least no one I've known—would say, "My friends and I were doing meds."
