Hello Student
Correct answer is 1. Tranquillisers
Tranquillers lessen tension and anxiety and promote calmness and soothing without sedating or depressant effect and do not induce sleep.

The symptoms of alcohol withdrawal can be treated by (2) Sedatives

Benzodiazepines (sedatives) are the most commonly used medication for the treatment of alcohol withdrawal and are generally safe and effective in suppressing symptoms of alcohol withdrawal. This class of medications are generally effective in symptoms control, but need to be used carefully. Although benzodiazepines have a long history of successfully treating and preventing withdrawal, there is no consensus on the ideal one to use. The most commonly used agents are long-acting benzodiazepines, such as chlordiazepoxide and diazepam. These are believed to be superior to other benzodiazepines for treatment of delirium and allow for longer periods between dosing. However, benzodiazepines with intermediate half-lives like lorazepam may be safer in people with liver problems.
