Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Rebound effect may occur with overuse of some medications. Ceiling effect is the greatest attainable response. An idiosyncratic effect may occur even with prudent use of nose drops. Measured effect is the patient's response to the medication.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The lower conjunctival sac is exposed by applying gentle traction to the lower lid at the bony rim of the orbit. The inner canthus allows medication to flow out of the eye. Applying directly to the eyeball risks injury to the globe. The outer corner of the eyelid allows medication to flow out of the eye.
