Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
This medication does not need to go through the dissolution phase, so it is more rapidly absorbed.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Allopurinol (Zyloprim) increases the effects of warfarin (Coumadin). Allopurinol does not interact with diphenhydramine, metoclopramide, and propranolol.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
