  46. Your roommate was given an antibiotic for strep throat. After three days she is feeling fine and asks you if she should stop taking the antibiotic and save the pills for the next time she has a sore throat. Your best response would be: A. Yes, quit taking them, because the role of antibiotics is to give the body's immune system enough time to fight off the infection, so she doesn't need the pills after she feels better. B. No, she must finish her course of treatment because repeated exposure to antibiotics may result in drug resistant strains. C. Yes, the antibiotics were very potent and able to kill off the infection more quickly than anticipated. D. No, the infection is really not under control yet to the point that her immune system can finish fighting it off.
