Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Overall, quinolones are fairly well tolerated, although gastrointestinal (GI) adverse effects are most common. The typical complaints include dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, dyspepsia, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and flatulence.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D
Factors that are considered absolute contraindications to use of thrombolytic therapy include ex-periencing CVA within the previous 3 months, aneurysm, intracranial neoplasm, and platelet count under 100,000 mm3. A history of mitral valve prolapse is not a contraindication to use, nor is age greater than 65 years.
