Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, D
Hydroxyzine has sedative, antihistamine, and antiemetic effects in addition to antianxiety activity. Hydroxyzine does not control psychotic thinking, obsessive compulsive thinking, or movement disorders caused by other medications.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D, E
Physical examination, psychological evaluation, history of precipitation stressors, medication history, and substance abuse history are important in evaluating a patient with anxiety to get a complete background on the patient. The blood glucose level is not included in evaluation of a patient with anxiety.
