Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
CMV is an opportunistic infection that is most often diagnosed in patients with HIV or who are immunocompromised because those with a healthy immune system can fight off CMV. CMV would not be diagnosed in patients with influenza, an autoimmune disorder, or hepatitis B because the immune system would be strong enough to destroy the CMV pathogen.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Caution should be used in individuals with renal dysfunction, moderate liver impairment, active peptic ulcer, or during pregnancy and lactation. Compazine can be used in children under the age of 12, preoperative patients, and people weighing 100 pounds.
