Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Bisoprolol is the drug of choice for older adults. It is not associated with as many adverse effects in the elderly and regular dosing profiles can be used. This drug does not have an established pediatric dosage. Although the 37-year-old patient is an adult, there are additional choices for this patient, with a more favorable adverse effect profile.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Clotrimazole is an effective treatment for oropharyngeal candidiasis (in troche form) or to prevent oropharyngeal candidiasis in patients receiving radiation or chemotherapy. Itraconazole, fluconazole, and posaconazole would not be appropriate for this patient because they do not treat oropharyngeal candidiasis infections.
