Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Candida infection is being treated by newer antifungal medications that have cut the treatment time from 7 to 2 days. These products are commonly prescribed for women with vaginal infections and AIDS patients with reduced immunity.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The most important differences are that some synthetic preparations have been shown to dissolve better than others or contain the products in amounts that increase the absorption of the vitamins.
