Narcotic, for example (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

drug

'narcotic for example' is the definition.
(narcotic is a kind of drug)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for drug that I've seen before include "Tranquillize" , "Medicinal substance" , "Item of medicine or a narcotic" , "Sedate" , "may be soft or hard" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
