Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, C, D
Breast tenderness, weight gain, and edema are adverse effects to expect when beginning oral contraceptives. Elevated blood pressure and increased thirst are not adverse effects to expect from oral contraceptives.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Estrogens may inhibit the metabolism of phenytoin, resulting in phenytoin toxicity. Phenytoin does not reduce the effectiveness of estrogen. Estrogen does not reduce the effectiveness of phenytoin. Phenytoin does not inhibit the metabolism of estrogen.
