Question 5134
If a driver is undergoing treatment and takes certain medications, such as pain relievers or antihistamines, it is advisable that they...
- turn in their driver's license to the Provincial Traffic Office while undergoing treatment.
- not drive for the duration of the treatment or only drive at night.
- check whether the medications can cause side effects that affect driving.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: check whether the medications can cause side effects that affect driving.
Some pain relievers and antihistamines cause drowsiness or slow your reactions. Read the package insert or ask your doctor or pharmacist how they affect you. You don't need to turn in your driver's license or stop driving for the entire treatment.
