Cal is extremely edgy. He paces around his hotel room and every few minutes ducks over to the window and sneaks a look through the curtains. He is muttering to himself and tugging at his hair.

What drug are these symptoms indicative of?
A) marijuana
B) barbiturates
C) amphetamines
D) hallucinogens

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cal's symptoms are indicative of amphetamines, as he is experiencing paranoia, anxiety, and agitation. These are common side effects of amphetamines, which are stimulant drugs that can produce feelings of euphoria, energy, and heightened alertness. Marijuana, barbiturates, and hallucinogens are unlikely to produce these specific symptoms.
