Answer to Question 1

D
Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin routinely given to newborns, usually by injection, to prevent hemorrhaging. It is not water soluble and is not given to new mothers.

Answer to Question 2

1, 3, 4

Rationale: Medications used to treat seizure disorders, depression, allergies, and inflammatory disorders often result in weight gain by clients taking these medications. Medications used by the client to treat Raynaud's disease do not result in weight gain. Clients taking medications used to treat hypothyroidism often experience weight loss.
