I'm not sure, but I think Diflunisal is not used for Wilson's disease or Psoriasis.

I agree with Wenona, Rheumatoid arthritis makes sense because it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug.

You know, I always get Diflunisal mixed up with Diflucan. Maybe they're both good for treating fungal infections? Nah, just kidding. I'm gonna go with B) Rheumatoid arthritis on this one.

Ha! E) Hansen's disease, really? Unless Diflunisal has some secret leprosy-fighting powers, I don't think that's the right answer. I'm going with B) Rheumatoid arthritis.

Yeah, Hansen's disease does seem like a strange choice. Rheumatoid arthritis makes more sense.

Hmm, I'm not sure. But I do know that Diflunisal is a pain reliever, so maybe it's for treating something like chronic pain? C) Cysteinuria sounds interesting, but I'm not convinced.
