Question

which of these is a commonly abused prescription?
opiate pain relievers
heroin
ecstasy
motion sickness pills

Explanation:

To determine the commonly abused prescription, we analyze each option:

• Opiate pain relievers (like oxycodone, hydrocodone) are frequently prescribed and have high abuse potential due to their addictive properties.
• Heroin is an illegal drug, not a prescription medication.
• Ecstasy (MDMA) is a recreational drug, not a prescription drug.
• Motion sickness pills (e.g., antihistamines) have low abuse potential compared to opiate pain relievers.

Answer:

A. opiate pain relievers
