Answer to Question 1

Ans: A, C, D
Feedback:
Estrogens can relieve symptoms of menopause but can lead to blood pressure and lipid changes. ERT can help lessen the changes to aging tissues, but the estrogen does increase a woman's risk for gallbladder disease. The addition of progestin is recommended when estrogen is used to treat menopausal symptoms in a woman with an intact uterus. Estrogen alone may be used for estrogen replacement therapy after a hysterectomy. The administration of estrogen by any route may result in many adverse reactions, although these reactions vary in incidence and intensity.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, B, C, E
Feedback:
Testolactone (Teslac), leuprolide (Lupron), megestrol (Megace), bicalutamide (Casodex), and goserelin (Zoladex) are hormones used as antineoplastic drugs.
