Pain-killing drugs derived from opium are known as narcotics.

<h3>Which type of drug classification are addictive drugs?</h3>

Addictive substances can generally be categorized as stimulants, depressants, hallucinogens, or opioids. These four drug categories set substances apart based on how they affect the brain and change a person's attitude and conduct. Narcotics are typically referred to as narcotic analgesics because their primary therapeutic function is the alleviation of pain. Opiates, or substances found in or derived from opium, are the most well-known drugs. The dried milky fluid of the opium poppy's seed pods is used to make opium (Papaver somniferum).

The central nervous system becomes less active when stimulants are used. Stimulant drugs are those that make the central nervous system work more vigorously. Barbiturates reduce brain activity by preventing the transmission or reception of signals from brain nerves. Hallucinogens are substances that can induce hallucinations and can be created synthetically or naturally.

Elan Coil [88]
The advantages of seeing a specialist vs a primary care physician is that the specialist knows exactly about that field of medicine. One circumstance for a specialist: Your eye is bleeding and red, you might want to go see an ophthalmologist because they focus on the eyes. One circumstance for a primary care physician: You feel weak, dizzy and you are vomiting, you have no specific area of pain, so you might want to see a primary care physician because they know about different fields of medicine instead of just focusing on one.
