Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Drugs may be administered parenterally, orally, or vaginally to induce labor. Oxytocin is the drug most commonly used to induce labor. Prostaglandin vaginal suppositories or gel may also be administered before oxytocin to ripen the cervix. The remaining choices are medications administered to stop labor.

A
Feedback:
Anorexia is a characteristic sign of AIDS. Rapid weight loss, dry cough, and lipoatrophy (loss of fat in face, arms, legs, and buttocks) are also signs of AIDS.
