Answer 1

Lithium, propranolol, acetaminophen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anxiety may be defined as the disorder of the temporary fear. The individual may suffer from the anxiety in front of its audience, during an exam or the performance.

A woman suffers from anxiety, delusion and systolic murmur. The woman should be treated with lithium that helps in the treatment of anxiety and depression. Propranolol is used for the treatment of irregular heartbeats. Acetaminophen is used for the treatment of the high temperature and cardiovascular disease.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
