Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

A genetic predisposition to alcoholism is established for Native Americans and the children of alcoholics. Married people, college graduates, and parents are less likely to become alcoholics.

Disulfiram (Antabuse) causes the client to become immediately and violently ill when consuming alcohol. Naloxone is administered to clients who overdose on opiates. Bupropion hydrochloride and varenicline are both medications to assist with smoking cessation.
