Answer to Question 1

D
The medication should be taken for 14 days.
The medication should be taken for 14 days, not 5, 7, or 10 days.

Answer to Question 2

B
Antianginal therapy does not have to be used in conjunction with antihypertensive agents.
Research indicates that antianginal therapy reduces the risk but does not prevent myocardial in-farction and death and is intended to reduce the intensity and frequency of anginal attacks which are caused by myocardial ischemia.
