drugging Wilson is apparently hard-wired into Pete's DNA - he just can't help himself given half an excuse. He drugs people (not just Wilson) so often in the show that I can't help thinking that he considers it a standard medical procedure.
Tanja has obviously watched the show, as she calmly observes Pete doctoring up the IV with nary a concern Tanja is a meta comment on how we, the audience, accept everything that House does without batting an eyelid. We excuse his deeds saying he's a genius who saves lives. If we, who don't even get paid for our indifference, refuse to condemn him, why should Tanja? (Besides, it would be kinda awkward for my story and for Wilson if House got chucked into jail without being able to save Wilson first, so she has to 'not care'. But unlike the show, I really didn't see House coping by himself for four days and nights and I couldn't believe he'd even try, not when he knew half the hookers in New Jersey.)
