Validating multiple choice with single "no" and multiple "yes" options

I have a few questions where I ask a question with multiple options. For instance: Did you use prescription drugs? 1. No 2. Yes, before drinking 3. Yes, after drinking 4. Yes, while drinking They can select multiple options but I want to validate it such that if they select "no" they can't select any of the yes options. Is there a less cumbersome way to build the validation than list out all the possible "legal" combinations (eight in this case if my counting is right) since I have to do this for multiple similar questions. I could also use two different questions but I just wanted to check if there was an easier fix. Thanks!

Yes, make the No choice exclusive (click the arrow to the right of the choice for options)
