Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The Physicians' Desk Reference is published yearly and contains manufacturers' published inserts for selected drugs. American Formulary Service is an authoritative source of drug information. Drug Facts and Comparisons is an authoritative source of drug information. Lippincott's Nursing Drug Guide is an example of a drug handbook, not a compilation of manufacturers' inserts.
