Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The antidote for acetaminophen (Tylenol) poisoning is N-acetylcysteine (Mucomyst). Carnitine (Carnitor) is an antidote for valproic acid (Depakote), fomepizole (Antizol) is the antidote for methanol poisoning, and deferoxamine (Desferal) is the antidote for iron poisoning.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
For children who delay going to bed, a recommended approach involves a consistent bedtime ritual and emphasizing the normalcy of this type of behavior in young children. Parents should ignore attention-seeking behavior, and the child should not be taken into the parents' bed or allowed to stay up past a reasonable hour.
