B. Cocaine
Cocaine in the periphery blocks the reuptake of norepinephrine and can lead to increased sympathomimetic effects on the heart and vasculature including stroke and arrhythmias. In the CNS, it blocks the reuptake of dopamine in areas like the nucleus accumbens that is the most likely explanation for its high addiction potential.
