Strictly speaking, narcotics are chemicals which induce sleep. These include opiates, barbituates, benzodiazepines, etc.

In the legal sense of the word, which isn't the proper definition, classes include opiates, benzodiazpines, barbituates, cannabinoids, amphetamines cocaine, tryptamines (LSD/Mushrooms), and many many others. Look into "federal drug scheduling" for more information on what the law considers to be a narcotic.
