Choose the most appropriate option to fill in the blank:

Doctor has ___ him from drinking alcohol if he wants to get well.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

'Proscribed' means forbidden or prohibited. A doctor forbidding a patient from drinking alcohol fits 'has proscribed him from drinking'. 'Conducted', 'scolded' and 'encouraged' do not fit the sense of a medical prohibition.
