  1. Prescribe a select serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant
  2. Refer her to a mental health therapist
  3. Contact her dermatologist about discontinuing the isotretinoin
  4. Reassure her that mood swings are normal and schedule follow up in a week

Question 2

First-line therapy for treating topical fungal infections such as tinea corporis (ringworm) or tinea pedis (athlete's foot) would be:
 
  1. OTC topical azole (clotrimazole, miconazole)
  2. Oral terbinafine
  3. Oral griseofulvin microsize
  4. Nystatin cream or ointment
