Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Best results of combination acne treatments require 8 to 12 weeks of therapy, and maintenance therapy is usually required.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Large doses of atropine cause facial flushing because of dilation of blood vessels in the neck. Pallor, edema, and incontinence are not caused by dilation of blood vessels in the neck.
