The correct option is

Cocaine
Cocaine is also known as coke. It is a strong stimulant mostly used as a recreational drug.
It is commonly snorted, inhaled as smoke, or dissolved and injected into a vein.
Mental effects may include loss of contact with reality, an intense feeling of happiness, or agitation.
Physical symptoms may include a fast heart rate, sweating, and large pupils. High doses can result in very high blood pressure or body temperature.
Its usage increases the risk of stroke, myocardial infarction, lung problems in those who smoke it, blood infections, cancer and sudden cardiac death.
Hence, Cocaine can cause cancer.
So, the correct answer is 'Cocaine'.
