Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Products with low androgenic activity help to reduce acne.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Breakthrough bleeding is more common at the start of COC use, and there is no evidence that an episode of bleeding is associated with a decrease in the COC's effectiveness as long as the patient continues to take the pill as prescribed. She does not need to use backup contraception. Unless the bleeding continues and is problematic, there is no need to change products. A pregnancy test is not indicated.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
