Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

D
Micafungin has a drug-drug interaction with Procardia (a calcium channel clocker). Patients treated with micafungin should be monitored closely for signs of toxicity.
No drug-drug interactions are associated with micafungin and mycophenolate, cyclosporine, or tacrolimus.
