Question 1 of 5

This drug is an anticonvulsant frequently used to treat generalized tonic-clonic seizures.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Amiodarone. Amiodarone is not commonly used as an anticonvulsant; it is primarily used as an antiarrhythmic medication to treat various types of irregular heart rhythms. Adenosine is used to treat supraventricular tachycardia, not seizures. Diltiazem is a calcium channel blocker used for hypertension and arrhythmias, not seizures. Esmolol is a beta-blocker primarily used for controlling heart rate in certain conditions, not seizures. Therefore, Amiodarone is the most appropriate choice for treating generalized tonic-clonic seizures.
