Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
This drug is contraindicated during pregnancy because it is an abortifacient. The other options are not correct.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
All histamine-2 antagonists are eliminated through the kidneys; dosages need to be reduced in patients with renal impairment. No caution is necessary with Zantac therapy in people with diabetes, pulmonary disease, or migraine headaches.
