Answer 2

Question 16:

The answer is true. Sober living communities are safe places for people battling addiction to separate themselves from substance abuse. They can be held accountable and hold each other accountable.

Question 17:

The answer is c (pain relievers). Motrin, ibuprofen, etc. are all pain relievers that take no prescription or have specific medical limits. Vaccinations must be prescribed and administered by a doctor, depressants must be prescribed by a doctor and usually a psychiatrist, and antibiotics must be prescribed by a doctor if they determine you are in need.

Question 18:

The answer is b (drug allergy). The symptoms described pertain to an immune system reaction. This kind of severe reaction is only present with a drug allergy. The symptoms of drug sensitivity are much milder.
