Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Aspirin and Tylenol are added to narcotic analgesics for additive effects of pain relief without the addition of narcotic adverse effects. Aspirin and Tylenol do not provide an antagonistic effect. Aspirin and Tylenol do not cause an interference of action. Aspirin and Tylenol will not increase excretion.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Because orlistat prevents absorption of the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, people who take it should also take a multivitamin daily 2 hours before or after orlistat. Iron supplements, potassium supplements, and omega-3 fatty acid supplements are not necessarily required.
