Answer to Question 1

The best way to maintain gastrointestinal (GI) function is through proper diet including optimizing fiber intake, adequate fluid intake, and exercise, which will stimulate GI activity. Drugs should only be used when normal function cannot be maintained. Options A, C, and D are not correct.

Glulisine has an onset of 2 to 5 minutes and peaks in 30 to 90 minutes so it has the fastest onset of action. Lispro has an onset in <15 hours.
