Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Cimetidine may act as an antiandrogen to cause reversible impotence and gynecomastia.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Serum levels of theophylline may be elevated in the presence of lansoprazole. Proton pump inhib-itors inhibit the biotransformation of oral anticoagulants, diazepam, theophylline, and phenytoin, which leads to elevated serum levels of these drugs.
