Explanation

Something gains acceptability only if it has shown results in past. Here, the first statement signifies the proof that showing personal interest, benefits the addicts. Also, if something is related to a problem and has a role in treating the same, it gets prescribed. Here, both I and II are implicit and therefore, (3) is the correct answer choice.
