B. Metabolically induced coma

Explanation:

Metabolically induced coma can be defined as the coma that is brought about when a person injests a drug that contains barbiturates or other recreational drugs such as thiopental.

Patients who are in a metabolically induced coma show ocular reflexes such as equal and reactive pupils, and roving eye movements. When a Babinski test is carried out on patients in a metabolically induced coma, a negative Babinski sign is always shown.
