Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Federal and state laws make it a crime for anyone to possess controlled substances without a prescription. Each state has a practice act that lists which health care providers may dispense and write prescriptions for controlled substances. Physicians may write prescriptions for controlled substances.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The generic name is the common drug name used. This name is the same in all countries. The generic drug name is written in lower-case letters, whereas the trade name or brand name of a drug is capitalized.
