Diazepam is commonly used to reduce anxiety. It is a medication that belongs to the benzodiazepine class and acts as a central nervous system depressant. It works by enhancing the effects of a neurotransmitter called GABA, which helps to calm the brain and reduce anxiety.

Correct Answer
A. Bone painExplanation
Fentanyl is a potent opioid medication used for pain management. Its adverse effects commonly include weakness, dry mouth, and headache. However, bone pain is not typically listed as an adverse effect of fentanyl. This is because fentanyl primarily affects the central nervous system and does not directly target the bones. Therefore, bone pain is not expected to be a side effect of fentanyl use.Rate this question:

Memory loss
Correct Answer
A. Memory lossExplanation
Diazepam is a medication that belongs to the benzodiazepine class and is commonly used as a sedative or to treat anxiety disorders. One of the side effects of diazepam is memory loss, particularly anterograde amnesia, which refers to the inability to form new memories. This effect is due to the drug's ability to enhance the activity of a neurotransmitter called gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which has inhibitory effects on the brain. Therefore, diazepam can impair the formation and retrieval of memories, leading to memory loss.Rate this question:
