How may prescriptions under the Death with Dignity Act be consumed?

  1. By injection only

  2. By ingestion only

  3. Through intravenous drip

  4. Using a patch

The correct answer is: By ingestion only

Prescriptions under the Death with Dignity Act must be consumed by ingestion only. This means that they should be taken orally, usually in the form of a pill or liquid. Options A, C, and D are all incorrect as they involve a method of administration other than ingestion, which is explicitly stated as the only accepted method in the question. Additionally, option A specifically mentions injection, which is a more invasive and potentially painful method that is not permitted under the Death with Dignity Act. Option D also mentions the use of a patch, which is a transdermal method and not suitable for consumption as it bypasses the digestive system. Therefore, option B is the only correct answer as it aligns with the specific requirement of ingestion.
