Sedative induces a painless state, whereas a narcotic induces a trance like state, therefore I think it should be option c, as we are talking about physical attributes not emotional.

Sedative alleviate the pain.
Consolation soothe the grief

There stands the same relationship.

Sedative relieves pain. But Narcotic creates trance not relieves trance. So answer will be B (100% correct).
