Answer: (A) Hyperal dosteronism

Explanation:

In the case of hyperaldosteronism the levels of secretion of aldosterone increases. This can become responsible for alkolosis and hyperkalemia. High blood pressure, low levels of potassium, headache, muscle weakness, numbness and feeling tired are the symptoms of the hyper dosteronism. Also the increase in the content of sodium and decrease in levels of magnesium causes polyuria and polydipsia without causing polyphagia.

EBP in simple terms involves the application of the scientific theories and findings into real practice on the patients. In EBP, the choices and preferences of the concerned patients are given utmost priority.

This means that the usage of the old and traditional practices may be discarded. The benefit of applying this phenomenon is that it involves personally designing the care-chart of each patient according to their symptoms, therefore, providing the required treatments and avoiding unnecessary medications and treatments.

Why are people dependent on drugs?
Keith_Richards [23]
People who become dependent on a drug may become tolerant to that drug. This means they need to use more and more of the drug to get the same effect or to avoid withdrawal symptoms. When people are dependent they believe they have to use the drug to do certain things or feel a certain way.
