• Narcotics, also known as controlled substances, are drugs that can have a sedative effect on the central nervous system.
• They are often regulated and classified into different schedules or categories by government authorities, such as the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
• The specific drugs considered narcotics and their scheduling can vary by country, so it’s essential to refer to your local regulations.
• Here’s a list of some common narcotics and their classifications in the United States:

  1. Heroin
  2. LSD (Lysergic Acid Diethylamide)
  3. MDMA (3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine or “Ecstasy”)
