Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1,3,4,5
Rationale 1: Hair loss may indicate significant immunosuppression and should be reported.
Rationale 2: It is not necessary to wear a mask in public.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Cyclosporine (Neoral) can cause hypertension, not hypotension.
