Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
Complementary therapies are those therapies used in addition to conventional treatment recom-mended by the person's health care provider. They do not replace the prescribed treatment plan.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Meditation may increase the effects of certain drugs. For example, monitor individuals taking antihypertensive medications or thyroid-regulating, antidepressant, or antianxiety medications. Prolonged practice of meditation techniques sometimes leads to the reduced need for certain medications such as antihypertensive medications. Whatever the case, monitor individuals learn-ing meditation closely for physiological changes with respect to their medications. Adjustment of the medication is sometimes necessary. While the remaining options are not inappropriate, they do not assess the primary issue regarding medication.
