Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Patients receiving cephalosporins, aminoglycosides, polymyxin B, vancomycin, and loop diuretics concurrently should be assessed for signs of nephrotoxicity. Urinalysis and kidney function tests should be monitored for abnormal results. Cephalosporins are unlikely to cause liver toxicity, ototoxicity, or spleen toxicity.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Gentamicin is incompatible with heparin. Ampicillin, ticarcillin, and ciprofloxacin are compatible with heparin.
