Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Bethanechol is used for the treatment of nonobstructive postoperative and postpartum urinary retention, neurogenic bladder atony in adults and children older than 8 years; diagnosis and treatment of reflux esophagitis in adults, and orally in infants and children for treatment of esophageal reflux. It would be ineffective in treating hypertension, bradycardia, and asthma.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The adverse effects of albendazole, which are already severe, may increase if the drug is combined with dexamethasone, praziquantel, or cimetidine. These combinations should be avoided if at all possible; if they are necessary, patients should be monitored closely for the occurrence of adverse effects. Pioglitazone is an oral antidiabetic agent that could be taken with albendazole. Loperamide is an antidiarrheal drug that may be used for treatment of diarrhea as a result of the mebendazole and pyrantel. Alprazolam should not be a concern.
