Question #21
Which type of contraceptive is contraindicative in lactation?
- AUID
- BDepo-Provera
- CMini pills
- DOCPs
- ECondom
Correct Answer:
D
Based on the available evidence, expert opinion in the United States holds that the risks of combination contraceptive products usually outweigh the benefits before 4 weeks postpartum. Between 4 weeks and 6 months postpartum, the advantages of using the method generally outweigh the theoretical or proven risks, although the evidence of lack of effect on lactation is poor and does not include preterm or ill infants. Introduction of a combined oral contraceptive containing 30 mcg of ethinyl estradiol on day 42 or beyond may not affect milk intake or infant growth. After 6 months postpartum, combination contraceptives, including oral tablets, the transdermal patch and vaginal ring, can be used, but progestin-only methods are preferred if breastfeeding will be continued.

Question #25
After starting Antidepressant drug, if patient is not improving then when you decide to stop drugs?
- A3-4 weeks
- B1 day
- C1 week
- D2 weeks
Correct Answer:
A
Some people notice an improvement within a few days of starting treatment. However, an antidepressant often takes 2-4 weeks to build up its effect and work fully. Some people stop treatment after a week or so thinking it is not helping. It is best to wait for 3-4 weeks before deciding if an antidepressant is helping or not.
If poor sleep is a symptom of the depression, it is often helped first, within a week or so. With some types of tricyclic antidepressant, the initial dose that is started is often small and is increased gradually to a full dose. (One problem that sometimes occurs is that some people remain on the initial dose which is often too low to work fully.) If you find that the treatment is helpful after 3-4 weeks, it is usual to continue. A normal course of antidepressants lasts at least six months after symptoms have eased. If you stop the medicine too soon, your symptoms may rapidly return. Some people with recurrent depression are advised to take longer courses of treatment (up to 2 years or longer)
