Target lemma: tablet
Target surface form: tablet
Context:
This document is a summary of the European Public Assessment Report. It explains how the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) assessed the studies performed, to reach their recommendations on how to use the medicine. What is Cerenia? Cerenia contains the active substance maropitant and is available as tablet or as solution for injection. The tablets are pale-orange and have a score line on both sides so that they can be halved. Each <t>tablet</t> is marked with the Pfizer logo on one side and with the letters MPT and the quantity of maropitant on the other side. What is Cerenia used for?

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=tablet%1:06:02:: | definition=a slab of stone or wood suitable for bearing an inscription
2. sense_key=tablet%1:27:00:: | definition=a number of sheets of paper fastened together along one edge | synonyms=pad, pad of paper
3. sense_key=tablet%1:06:01:: | definition=a small flat compressed cake of some substance | examples=a tablet of soap

2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
The context is about Cerenia, a veterinary medicine that contains maropitant and is "available as tablet or as solution for injection." The tablets are described as pale-orange with a score line, marked with the Pfizer logo, and containing a quantity of maropitant. This is clearly a dose of medicine in the form of a small pellet.

Sense 4: "a dose of medicine in the form of a small pellet" with synonyms pill, lozenge, tab — this fits perfectly.

Sense 3: "a small flat compressed cake of some substance" with example "a tablet of soap" — this is too generic; while a medicine tablet is technically a compressed cake, sense 4 is more specific and appropriate for the medicinal context.

The best sense is 4.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "marked" in the context: "Each tablet is marked with the Pfizer logo on one side and with the letters MPT and the quantity of maropitant on the other side."

Here, "marked" means the tablet has an identifying mark (the Pfizer logo) on it. This matches sense 3: "having or as if having an identifying mark or a mark as specified; often used in combination" with examples like "played with marked cards; a scar-marked face."

Sense 1 is about being strongly noticeable (like a marked limp). Sense 2 is about being singled out for a dire fate (like a marked man). Sense 3 is about having an identifying mark, which fits perfectly with a tablet being marked with a logo.

The answer is sense 3.

reasoning_content:
The context is about a tablet that has markings on one "side" and the other "side." The tablet is a physical object, and the "side" refers to one of the flat surfaces of the tablet.

Looking at the senses:
- Sense 4: "a surface forming part of the outside of an object" with synonym "face" — this fits well for a tablet's side.
- Sense 5: "an extended outer surface of an object" — this could also fit, but the examples suggest larger surfaces like the side of a house.

The tablet has two flat surfaces (one with the Pfizer logo, the other with MPT and quantity). Sense 4 seems most appropriate: "a surface forming part of the outside of an object," with the example "he examined all sides of the crystal."

Sense 4 seems like the best fit.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "quantity" in the context: "the letters MPT and the quantity of maropitant on the other side."

Here, "quantity" refers to how much maropitant (the active substance) is in the tablet, e.g., 50 mg, 100 mg, etc. This is about "how much there is of something that you can quantify," which matches sense 1.

Sense 2 refers to "an adequate or large amount" (like "a quantity of ammunition").
Sense 3 refers to the abstract mathematical concept of quantity.

Sense 1 is the best fit.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "other" in the context: "Each tablet is marked with the Pfizer logo on one side and with the letters MPT and the quantity of maropitant on the other side."

Here, "other" refers to the side that is not the one already mentioned (the side with the Pfizer logo). It means "not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied."

Sense 1: "not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied" - this fits perfectly. The tablet has two sides; one side has the Pfizer logo, and the "other" side (the not-already-mentioned side) has the letters MPT and the quantity.

Sense 2: "recently past" - doesn't fit.
Sense 3: "belonging to the distant past" - doesn't fit.
Sense 4: "very unusual; different in character or quality from the normal or expected" - doesn't fit.

The answer is sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The context is about a tablet, where "one side" and "the other side" refer to the flat surfaces of the tablet. The tablet has a Pfizer logo on one surface and letters on the other surface.

Sense 4: "a surface forming part of the outside of an object" with synonym "face" and examples "he examined all sides of the crystal; dew dripped from the face of the leaf" - this fits well for the flat surfaces of a tablet.

Sense 5: "an extended outer surface of an object" with examples "he turned the box over to examine the bottom side; they painted all four sides of the house" - this also could fit but is more about larger extended surfaces like walls of a house.

Sense 3: "either the left or right half of a body" - not applicable here.

The tablet has two flat faces/sides. Sense 4 with its synonym "face" seems most appropriate since tablets have faces (flat surfaces), and the text mentions "on one side" and "on the other side" referring to the two flat surfaces of the tablet.

I'll go with sense 4.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "means" in the sentence: "Cerenia is an anti-emetic, this means that it stops vomiting."

Here, "this means that" is introducing a logical consequence or explanation. "Cerenia is an anti-emetic" entails/explains that "it stops vomiting."

Let me look at the candidates:

1. mean%2:32:01:: - mean or intend to express or convey - "You never understand what I mean!"
2. mean%2:42:00:: - have as a logical consequence - "The water shortage means that we have to stop taking long showers"
3. mean%2:32:03:: - denote or connote - "`maison' means `house' in French"
4. sense_key=mean%2:31:00:: - have in mind as a purpose - "I mean no harm"
5. sense_key=mean%2:42:03:: - have a specified degree of importance - "My ex-husband means nothing to me"
6. sense_key=mean%2:31:01:: - intend to refer to - "I'm thinking of good food when I talk about France"
7. sense_key=mean%2:31:05:: - destine or designate for a certain purpose

The sentence "Cerenia is an anti-emetic, this means that it stops vomiting" is very similar to the example for sense 2: "The water shortage means that we have to stop taking long showers." Both use "means that" to express a logical consequence.

So sense 2 is the best fit.

This fits perfectly. "stops vomiting" = puts an end to the activity of vomiting.

Let's check sense 3: "stop from happening or developing" | synonyms=halt, block, kibosh. The context also says "It is used in dogs to prevent vomiting". This is very close. "Stop from happening" vs "put an end to an activity". "Stops vomiting" usually implies it's putting an end to the activity. "Stop from happening" might imply preventing it entirely (which is also mentioned: "prevent vomiting"). However, "stops vomiting" is directly synonymous with "cease vomiting" or "halts vomiting". Wait, sense 2 is "put an end to a state or an activity". Sense 3 is "stop from happening or developing". Both seem applicable.
"anti-emetic" means it stops vomiting. Does it stop the activity once it starts, or stop it from happening?
Sense 3 has examples: "Block his election; Halt the process".
Sense 2 has examples: "Quit teasing your little brother".
Vomiting is an activity. To "stop vomiting" is to put an end to that activity. Sense 2 seems highly appropriate. Wait, "halt" is a synonym for both. Sense 1 is "come to a halt, stop moving". Sense 2 is "put an end to a state or an activity".
Let's consider sense 3 vs sense 2.
Often, in WordNet, "stop vomiting" aligns with ceasing the activity. However, "prevent completion" (sense 6) or "stop from happening" (sense 3) are also possible.
"Stop vomiting" as a transitive verb: The medicine stops the vomiting. It puts an end to the vomiting.
Let's choose Sense 2.
Definition: put an end to a state or an activity
Synonyms: discontinue, cease, give up, quit, lay off
Sense 3: stop from happening or developing. Synonyms: halt, block, kibosh.

Actually, "stop vomiting" usually translates to halting the vomiting. So either 2 or 3.
I will guess Sense 2.

reasoning_content:
The target lemma is "prevent".
Context: "It is used in dogs to prevent vomiting such as vomiting caused by chemotherapy..."
Candidate senses:
1. prevent%2:41:01:: - keep from happening or arising; make impossible (forestall, foreclose, preclude, forbid). Examples: My sense of tact forbids an honest answer; Your role in the projects precludes your involvement in the competitive project.
2. prevent%2:41:00:: - stop (someone or something) from doing something or being in a certain state (keep). Examples: We must prevent the cancer from spreading; His snoring kept me from falling asleep.

In the context, "prevent vomiting" means to stop vomiting from happening. However, look at the examples.
Sense 1 is "keep from happening or arising; make impossible".
Sense 2 is "stop (someone or something) from doing something or being in a certain state", with examples like "prevent the cancer from spreading".

"Prevent vomiting" - vomiting is an event. But chemotherapy causes vomiting, and the medicine stops this event from happening. Let's see if there is a subtle distinction.
Sense 1: "make impossible" - to preclude, forbid.
Sense 2: "stop... from doing something or being in a certain state" - "keep". "His snoring kept me from falling asleep."

Wait, "prevent vomiting" implies stopping the vomiting from happening. But does it make it "impossible" or just "stop" it?
Sense 2: "stop (someone or something) from doing something or being in a certain state"
Sense 1: "keep from happening or arising"

Wait, the definition of Sense 1 is literally "keep from happening or arising". Vomiting is an event, so "prevent vomiting" means keeping vomiting from happening.
Let's re-read carefully:
1: keep from happening or arising; make impossible | forestall, foreclose, preclude, forbid
2: stop (someone or something) from doing something or being in a certain state | keep

Is "prevent vomiting" better suited to "keep from happening" (Sense 1) or "stop someone/something from doing something" (Sense 2)?
Often, "prevent [event]" goes to "keep from happening or arising". "Prevent [person/thing] from [verb-ing]" goes to Sense 2. Here, the object is "vomiting", an event.
"prevent vomiting" -> keep from happening or arising.
Wait, Sense 2's example is "We must prevent the cancer from spreading." "Cancer" is a thing, "spreading" is an event. Here it's "prevent vomiting", so the object is just the event.
Wait! Let me look up WordNet senses for "prevent".
WordNet 3.0:
prevent%2:41:00::: keep from happening or arising; make impossible; "My sense of tact forbids an honest answer"; "Your role in the projects precludes your involvement in the competitive project"
prevent%2:41:01::: stop (someone or something) from doing something or being in a certain state; "We must prevent the cancer from spreading"; "His snoring kept me from falling asleep"

Wait, the sense keys in the prompt are switched?
Prompt says:
1. sense_key=prevent%2:41:01:: | definition=keep from happening or arising; make impossible | ...
2. sense_key=prevent%2:41:00:: | definition=stop (someone or something) from doing something or being in a certain state | ...

Ah! Let's look at the prompt's numbering.
Candidate 1: definition=keep from happening or arising; make impossible (synonyms: forestall, foreclose, preclude, forbid)
Candidate 2: definition=stop (someone or something) from doing something or being in a certain state (synonyms: keep)

The context is "prevent vomiting". Vomiting is an event/action.
"keep from happening or arising" (Sense 1) applies to events (vomiting).
"stop (someone or something) from doing something" (Sense 2) applies to an agent/thing (someone or something).

Since "vomiting" is an event, "keep from happening or arising" is a better fit.
Wait, let me double check WordNet online just to be sure about the sense numbers.
Actually, the prompt explicitly says: "Do not answer with a WordNet sense key. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}."
So I will output {"sense_index": 1} or {"sense_index": 2}.

Let's evaluate Candidate 1:
"keep from happening or arising; make impossible"
Vomiting is an event. To prevent an event is to keep it from happening. "Prevent vomiting" fits perfectly.
Candidate 2 examples: "prevent the cancer from spreading", "kept me from falling asleep". It involves an object doing an action (cancer spreading, me falling asleep). Here, the object is "vomiting", an event itself.

So Sense 1 is the correct choice.
"prevent vomiting" -> keep from happening or arising.
Index 1.

Each tablet is marked with the Pfizer logo on one side and with the letters MPT and the quantity of maropitant on the other side. What is Cerenia used for? Cerenia is an anti-emetic, this means that it stops vomiting.

4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "caused" in the context "vomiting caused by chemotherapy".

Let me analyze the two candidate senses:

1. cause%2:36:00:: - "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally" | synonyms=do, make | examples=cause a commotion; make a stir
2. cause%2:32:00:: - "cause to do; cause to act in a specified manner" | synonyms=induce, stimulate, have, get, make | examples=The ads induced me to buy a VCR; My children finally got me to buy a computer

In the context, "vomiting caused by chemotherapy" means chemotherapy gives rise to vomiting - it causes vomiting to happen/occur. This is about causing an event/condition to happen, not causing someone to act in a specified manner.

Sense 1 is about causing something to happen or occur (like causing a commotion, causing vomiting).
Sense 2 is about causing someone to do something or act in a specified manner (like inducing someone to buy a VCR).

The context "vomiting caused by chemotherapy" fits sense 1 - chemotherapy gives rise to vomiting, causes it to happen/occur.

The answer is sense 1.

The definition of sense 1 is "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally".
The definition of sense 2 is "cause to do; cause to act in a specified manner".
"cause vomiting" matches sense 1 because vomiting is an event/occurrence, not an action performed by an agent acting in a specified manner. Sense 2 examples involve getting someone to do something (buy a VCR, buy a computer). Sense 1 examples involve "cause a commotion; make a stir".
Therefore, sense 1 is the best choice.

reasoning_content:
The context is: "In combination with supportive measures such as other veterinary treatment or a special diet..."

Here, "measures" refers to actions taken to achieve a goal (supportive care/treatment). The examples for sense 1 are "the situation called for strong measures; the police took steps to reduce crime." The synonyms include "step".

"Supportive measures" means supportive steps/actions taken to help the patient. This aligns with sense 1: "any maneuver made as part of progress toward a goal."

Let's check other senses:
- Sense 2: quantity/amount - doesn't fit "supportive measures"
- Sense 3: bill/law - no
- Sense 4: act of measuring - no
- Sense 5: standard/criterion - no
- Sense 6: prosody - no
- Sense 7: musical notation - no
- Sense 8: measuring instrument - no
- Sense 9: container - no

Sense 1 is clearly the best fit. "Supportive measures" = supportive steps/actions.

The context is: "In combination with supportive measures such as other veterinary treatment or a special diet"

Here, "other" means "not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied". It refers to veterinary treatment that is additional/different from the specific ones mentioned (Cerenia, special diet).

Sense 1 fits: "not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied".

Sense 3 is about the past - doesn't fit.
Sense 4 is about being unusual - doesn't fit.
Sense 2 is about recent past - doesn't fit.

So sense 1 is correct.

reasoning_content:
The context is about a "special diet" used in combination with veterinary treatment for dogs.

"a special diet" - this means a diet adapted for a particular purpose (e.g., for a dog with vomiting issues).

Sense 4: "adapted to or reserved for a particular purpose" with examples "a special kind of paint; a special medication for arthritis". This fits well with "a special diet" - a diet adapted for a particular purpose (e.g., gastrointestinal issues).

Sense 1: "unique or specific to a person or thing or category" - doesn't quite fit.

Sense 3: "surpassing what is common or usual or expected" - doesn't quite fit.

Sense 5: "having a specific function or scope" - possible but less fitting than sense 4.

Sense 4 seems best because "a special diet" here means a diet adapted to or reserved for a particular purpose (supporting the treatment of vomiting).

reasoning_content:
The target word is "diet" in the context: "In combination with supportive measures such as other veterinary treatment or a special diet, Cerenia can also be used in the treatment of vomiting..."
Here, "a special diet" refers to a prescribed selection of foods (for a dog).
Sense 1: a prescribed selection of foods
Sense 3: the usual food and drink consumed by an organism (person or animal)
"a special diet" in a medical/veterinary context strongly aligns with "a prescribed selection of foods". Let's verify. "supportive measures such as other veterinary treatment or a special diet" -> implies a diet prescribed by a vet. So Sense 1 seems highly appropriate.

Wait, let me double check. "prescribed selection of foods" is sense 1. "the usual food and drink..." is sense 3.
The context mentions "special diet" in the treatment of vomiting in dogs. Often this means prescribed food (e.g., bland diet, gastrointestinal diet). Sense 1 is a prescribed selection of foods.

Let me look at WordNet 3.1:
Noun
S: (n) diet (a prescribed selection of foods)
S: (n) diet (the usual food and drink consumed by an organism (person or animal))
S: (n) diet (a legislative assembly in certain countries (e.g., Japan))
S: (n) dieting, diet (the act of restricting your food intake (or your intake of particular foods))

In this context, "a special diet" prescribed as a supportive measure for treating vomiting in dogs. This aligns with sense 1, "a prescribed selection of foods". The phrase "special diet" implies it's a prescribed or medically indicated selection of foods, rather than just their normal, usual food.

Therefore, sense 1 is the correct choice.

Sense 1 perfectly matches "employ for a particular purpose". The medicine is put into service / employed for the treatment of vomiting.

Therefore, sense 1 is the correct one.

The context is about Cerenia, a veterinary medicine used to treat vomiting in dogs. It mentions "either as injection or as injection followed by tablets." Here, "injection" refers to the act of administering the medicine via a syringe into the body, contrasted with tablets (oral administration).

Sense 1: "the forceful insertion of a substance under pressure" - This is more about industrial/physical injection under pressure.
Sense 2: "any solution that is injected (as into the skin)" - This refers to the liquid solution itself, not the act.
Sense 3: "the act of putting a liquid into the body by means of a syringe" - This fits the context of administering medication either as injection or as tablets.

The context contrasts "injection" with "tablets", referring to the route of administration. So it's about the act of injecting the medication.

Sense 3 is the best fit.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "injection" in the context: "In combination with supportive measures such as other veterinary treatment or a special diet, Cerenia can also be used in the treatment of vomiting (either as injection or as injection followed by tablets)."

The context mentions "either as injection or as injection followed by tablets". This refers to the form of the medication given. It's a medical/veterinary context.
Sense 1: the forceful insertion of a substance under pressure
Sense 2: any solution that is injected (as into the skin) | synonyms=injectant
Sense 3: the act of putting a liquid into the body by means of a syringe | synonyms=shot | examples=the nurse gave him a flu shot

"either as injection or as injection followed by tablets" -> refers to the form of the treatment, which could be the solution that is injected (injectant) or the act of putting a liquid into the body. Wait, "either as injection or as injection followed by tablets" - wait, in veterinary medicine, Cerenia comes as an injectable solution and tablets. "either as injection or as tablets" - Oh wait, the text says "either as injection or as injection followed by tablets" - wait, the text has a typo or it's "either as injection or as tablets followed by..." No, "either as injection or as injection followed by tablets". Wait, let's look at the text again: "either as injection or as <t>injection</t> followed by tablets". It might refer to the administration of the drug. "given as an injection".

Actually, "injection" here refers to the act of putting a liquid into the body by means of a syringe, or the solution itself. "either as injection or as injection followed by tablets" - wait, "as injection" could mean "as an injection" (act or the solution). But WordNet sense 3 is "the act of putting a liquid into the body by means of a syringe", synonyms=shot. "The nurse gave him a flu shot." Sense 2 is "any solution that is injected (as into the skin)".
Let's think about "as injection". "It can be used in the treatment of vomiting (either as injection or as injection followed by tablets)." Wait, usually it's "as tablets or as injection followed by tablets"? No, the text actually says "either as injection or as injection followed by tablets". Or maybe "either as tablets or as injection followed by tablets". The first one might be a typo for tablets? The context says: "Cerenia can also be used in the treatment of vomiting (either as injection or as injection followed by tablets)."

If it refers to the act: "the act of putting a liquid into the body by means of a syringe". In medical texts, "injection" often refers to the administration of a drug via injection (the act), but also sometimes the injected solution.
Let's look at Sense 2: "any solution that is injected (as into the skin) | synonyms=injectant".
Sense 3: "the act of putting a liquid into the body by means of a syringe | synonyms=shot | examples=the nurse gave him a flu shot"

"injection" in "either as injection or as injection followed by tablets". Here, "injection" is a treatment form. "given as injection". Often, "as an injection" means the act. For instance, "The drug is given as an injection." Wait, "as an injection" means the act or the thing? "shot" is synonymous with the act or the thing? "shot" is "the act of putting a liquid..." according to WordNet.
Let's check "injection" in WordNet:
1. injection%1:04:00::: the forceful insertion of a substance under pressure (e.g. fuel injection)
2. injection%1:27:00::: any solution that is injected (as into the skin) | synonyms=injectant
3. injection%1:04:01::: the act of putting a liquid into the body by means of a syringe | synonyms=shot | examples=the nurse gave him a flu shot

Could it be Sense 2? "any solution that is injected". In medical context, "injection" often means the solution. "The injection contains 10 mg/ml". But here "given as injection". "given as a shot".
If we look at the definition of Sense 3: "the act of putting a liquid into the body by means of a syringe". Cerenia is given as an injection (act). "Cerenia can also be used in the treatment of vomiting (either as injection or as injection followed by tablets)."

Let's choose Sense 3. The medical act of injecting the drug. "a flu shot" matches "given as an injection". "given as an injection" is very close to "given as a shot".

Wait, could it be Sense 2? "any solution that is injected". An "injectant" is a solution. But usually "injection" is used as the act. I will select Sense 3.
