Answer to Question 1

C
Basiliximab is used to prevent acute rejection and is administered intravenously.

Answer to Question 2

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.
