Answer to Question 1

Ans: B, D
Metoprolol and lisinopril interfere with libido and can cause erectile dysfunction in men. Acetylsalicylic acid, clopidogrel, and ezetimibe do not. Of note, these medications indicate cardiovascular disease which is strongly associated with sexual dysfunction.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Among competent older adults, autonomy around sexual relationships should be protected and fostered. It is untrue that older adults have little need for sex and it is inappropriate for a nurse to prohibit a relationship pending education. Referring to older adults' relationships as cute is patronizing and inappropriate.
