Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, D, F
Macrolide antibiotics may inhibit the metabolism of benzodiazepines, digoxin, HMG CoA reductase inhibitors, and theophylline, causing accumulation and potential toxicity. NSAIDs and diuretics are not inhibited by macrolide antibiotics.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Good dietary sources of fiber include fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grain foods. There is little fiber in eggs, bacon, and orange juice and much fat and sugar. Although there is fiber in the menu of roast beef, mashed potatoes, corn, and milk as well as a hamburger on a bun, carrot sticks, and potato chips, these are not the best sources of dietary fiber.
