Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Unstable angina is described as increased narrowing of coronary arteries with the heart experiencing episodes of ischemia even at rest. If a coronary vessel is completely occluded and unable to deliver blood to the cardiac muscle, a myocardial infarction has occurred. Prinzmetal's angina is an unusual form of angina caused by spasm of the blood vessel and not just by vessel narrowing. Although pain is the body's response to ischemia in the heart muscle, this description could encompass angina or a myocardial infarction and is not specific enough to explain the condition.

Answer to Question 2

B, C, D
Feedback:
If a drug advertisement states what the drug is used for, it must also state contraindications, adverse effects, and precautions. The advertisement does not have to state symptoms or cost.
