Question 1 of 5
........................are the most effective drugs for controlling severe diarrhea.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Antidiarrheals. Antidiarrheals are the most effective drugs for controlling severe diarrhea because they work by slowing down bowel movements, allowing the intestines to absorb more water and electrolytes. This helps reduce the frequency and urgency of diarrhea.
Choice B: Montelukast is used for asthma and allergic rhinitis, not for diarrhea.
Choice C: Salmeterol is a long-acting beta agonist used for asthma and COPD, not for diarrhea.
Choice D: Theophylline is a bronchodilator used for asthma and COPD, not for diarrhea.
In summary, antidiarrheals are specifically designed to target the underlying cause of diarrhea and are thus the most appropriate choice for controlling severe diarrhea compared to the other options which are not indicated for this condition.
