Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

D
Narcolepsy can be treated with a CNS stimulant, which can promote arousal and thereby relieve symptoms.
Depression is not an indication for the use of CNS stimulants. Antidepressants are the drugs of choice for depression.
CNS stimulants do not abate opiate overdoses. Narcan is the drug of choice for that purpose.
CNS stimulants reduce appetite and therefore would not be recommended for a patient with a poor appetite.
