Match the following drugs with their therapeutic actions: (i) Ranitidine (ii) Nardil (Phenelzine) (iii) Chloramphenicol (iv) Dimetane (Brompheniramine) (a) Antidepressant (b) Antibiotic (c) Antihistamine (d) Antacid (e) Analgesic

1. (i)-(e); (ii)-(a); (iii)-(c); (iv)-(d)
2. (i)-(d); (ii)-(c); (iii)-(a); (iv)-(e)
3. (i)-(d); (ii)-(a); (iii)-(b); (iv)-(c)
4. (i)-(a); (ii)-(c); (iii)-(b); (iv)-(e)

Correct answer: (i)-(d); (ii)-(a); (iii)-(b); (iv)-(c)

Solution

Ranitidine is an antacid (d), Nardil/phenelzine is an antidepressant (a), chloramphenicol is an antibiotic (b), and Dimetane/brompheniramine is an antihistamine (c). So (i)-d, (ii)-a, (iii)-b, (iv)-c.
