please select the best answer from the choices provided

○ a
○ b
○ c

Explanation:

Codeine is an opioid, and opioids are classified as narcotics. Stimulants increase activity, depressants slow down functions (not codeine's main class), and hallucinogens cause perceptual changes (not codeine). So Tylenol III with codeine is a narcotic.

Answer:

C. narcotic
