Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, C, D
Deferoxamine, fomepizole, and penicillamine can all be used to chelate iron compounds.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Dimercaprol is formulated in peanut oil and should not be given to patients with peanut allergy. A history of anemia, previous lead exposure, or peptic ulcer disease are not contraindications to treatment with this drug.
