Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Foods containing the amino acid tyramine should be avoided. MAOIs block the metabolism of tyramine, resulting in an increase of norepinephrine. Aged and processed meats are an example. A hypertensive crisis may occur.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Electroconvulsive therapy is an effective treatment for those experiencing severe depression that is not helped with medication.
