Answer to Question 1

C, E
The nurse should question concurrent administration of infliximab in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis and heart failure (HF) or hepatitis. Infliximab may increase the risk of hospitalization and mortality in patients with HF. It also may cause liver injury, leading to a need for liver trans-plantation.
Infliximab is not contraindicated in patients with asthma, diabetes, or gallstones.

Answer to Question 2

B
FSH and LH are products of the anterior pituitary gland; no further teaching is required.
FSH and LH are not products of the hypothalamus, posterior pituitary gland, or thyroid gland; further teaching is necessary.
