Answer:

The answer is A. Loperamide

Explanation:

Antidiarrheals are drugs which are given to treat acute diarrhea by providing symptomatic relief for diarrhea but do not eliminate the cause of the diarrhea.The most common drug used is Loperamide (Imodium) which is an opioid receptor agonist. Loperamide decreases the flow of fluids and electrolytes in the bowel and reduces bowel movement by acting on the mu opioid receptors in the myenteric plexus of the large intestine. However, when taken in large quantities it gives high euphoria similar to opioids.

tamaranim1 [39]


Barrier methods of contraception would include:

1. Diaphragm

2. Sponge

3.Cervical cap

4.Male condom

5. Female condom

6. Spermicide.

Barrier methods of family planning are physical or chemical barriers that function to prevent conception. They have some advantages and disadvantages. For example some advantages of the diaphragm are that it has no effect on a woman's natural hormones, it can be used while breastfeeding beginning 6 weeks after birth. Some disadvantages  are  that there is increased risk of toxic shock syndrome if diaphragm is left in for more than 24 hours. Also it may have to be used in conjunction with another barrier method to enhance its efficacy.
