[pappueshwar]

(A) of drug dependency and others' prejudicial treatment as well.
(B) both of drug dependency and also of prejudicial treatment.
(C) both of drug dependency and also from prejudicial treatment.
(D) both of drug dependency but also from prejudicial treatment.
(E) both of drug dependency and of prejudicial treatment as well.

B/C - uses also - usage of also along with both seems redundant.
D - wrong idiom
Between A and E would go with E as it has perfect parallelism - both of X and of Y.

IMO E.

What is the source of the question.
Well, IMO it is B


(A) of drug dependency and others' prejudicial treatment as well. - Usage of "others'" is not required here
(B) both of drug dependency and also of prejudicial treatment - Both of X and also of Y - Parallelism
(C) both of drug dependency and also from prejudicial treatment. -> Both of X and also from Y is incorrect structure for parallelism
(D) both of drug dependency but also from prejudicial treatment. -> Both of X But Also from Y is incorrect structure for parallelism
(E) both of drug dependency and of prejudicial treatment as well. - Though option E is perfect example of parallelism, the "as well" at the end is redundant
