Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Diuretic effect is often decreased when NSAIDs are taken with loop diuretics. There is a potential for decreased antihypertensive effect of beta-blockers if NSAIDs are combined and there have also been reports of lithium toxicity, especially when lithium is combined with ibuprofen.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D
Feedback:
The stress response causes an increase in blood volume and a release of glucose for energy. It also slows the rate of protein production and blocks the activities of the inflammatory and immune systems, which reserves energy. This patient is unlikely to be hungry.
