Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Metoclopramide has been associated with decreased absorption of digoxin from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The nurse should monitor patients taking this combination carefully. The other options do not pose a concern about drugdrug interactions.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C
Feedback:
At 4 months of age, the child will receive a DTaP, Hib, IPV, and PCV. Varicella vaccine is not given until the child is at least 1 year of age, and Meningococcal is usually given at age 11 to 12 years unless the patient is at high risk for development of the disease before that age.
