Answer 1

mood stabilizer such as Adderall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Shoshanna is most likely to be treated with a mood stabilizer such as Adderall. This is a drug that is used in order to help the individual improve focus and reduce impulsivity such as what Shoshanna is experiencing at school. It is primarily used to treat individuals that have been diagnosed with ADHD or narcolepsy which have as main symptoms the inability to focus, as well as hyperactivity. Therefore, based on the options and the symptoms that Shoshanna is exhibiting this would be the most likely treatment.
