Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, E
Avoiding late-night meals and stopping smoking may help with symptoms of GERD.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The regimen recommended for the treatment of PUD includes two antibiotics and an antisecretory agent. Amoxicillin, clarithromycin, and omeprazole would meet this recommendation. Patients taking metronidazole cannot consume alcohol, as this would precipitate a disulfiram-like reaction. The last option does not include two antibiotics.
