Answer to Question 1

C
Chemical names are long and contain the exact chemical composition of the drug. It does not indicate a drug category or use.

Answer to Question 2

B
A therapeutic response is a drug's intended action to help a health problem. Effects that are caused by a drug but are not the intended action are known as side effects. No one prescribes a drug with the intention to cause ankle swelling, constipation, or dizziness.
