Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Leukotriene antagonists or modifiers are the classification of medications that are effective in treating these inflammatory respiratory complications and are commonly used for clients with asthma.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) emphasizes the here and now and assists the individual to take charge of his or her own life. The ultimate goal is what Linehan calls the wise mind, a midway point between being totally rational and totally emotional. Rational emotive therapy (RET) is built on the premise that an individual's values and beliefs control behavior. Health realization (HR) is a psychological/spiritual model of therapy. HR is based on the theory that each person possesses inborn or innate (inner) health and has the capacity or ability to lead a healthy life. Family counseling states that treating the substance abuser alone is not sufficient; the family also needs intensive counseling.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
