Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Ganirelix acetate (Antagon) is administered subcutaneously and cannot be administered orally, intramuscularly, or intravenously.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D, E
Feedback:
Diphenhydramine is used for the symptomatic relief of perennial and seasonal rhinitis, vasomotor rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, urticaria, and angioedema; it is also used for treating motion sickness and parkinsonism, as a nighttime sleep aid, and to suppress cough. It would not be used to treat a productive cough, because it is not an expectorant.
