Question

legal drugs that can be abused include:
(select all that apply)
cocaine
pain relievers
cough syrups
decongestants

Explanation:

• Cocaine is an illegal drug in most contexts, so it's not a legal drug that can be abused in the sense of legal availability for misuse.
• Pain relievers (like opioids or other prescription painkillers) can be legally prescribed but are often abused when used outside of medical guidance.
• Cough syrups, especially those containing ingredients like codeine, can be legally available over - the - counter or by prescription and are subject to abuse.
• Decongestants, while legal, some types (especially those with certain active ingredients) can be abused, for example, for their stimulant - like effects or to make other drugs. So pain relievers, cough syrups, and decongestants are legal drugs that can be abused.

Answer:
