I answered A I don't think B could be right

Answer 1

When you have commas within parts of a series, you need to use semicolons to separate the series' parts. B does this.

Answer 2

OK I see so it is B

Answer 3

Yes.

Answer 4

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The correct answer is B. In this option, each medication and its dosage are separated by semicolons, and each standalone medication is followed by a period. This punctuation style allows for clear and organized listing of the medications. The use of semicolons helps to avoid confusion between the medication names and dosages. On the other hand, option A uses commas and does not separate the medications and dosages clearly. Option C omits the proper punctuation altogether. So, B is the correct choice.
