ANS: C
The severity of symptoms present will determine the type and dosage of medication that should be prescribed (e.g., antidepressants would be used for symptoms of depression, anxi-olytics for acute anxiety, and psychotropics for symptoms of acute psychosis such as delu-sions or hallucinations). The other factors are not as relevant to the prescription of medica-tions.
