Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Beta blockers are administered with hydralazine to reduce the reflex tachycardia caused by arterial vasodilation. Diuretics may also be administered to promote water and sodium excretion. Renin inhibitors, ACE inhibitors, and angiotensin II receptor blockers are not usually administered to reduce the physiologic effects of hydralazine.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Headache is a common adverse effect of angiotensin II receptor antagonists. Bradycardia, hypokalemia, and insomnia are not common adverse effects of angiotensin II receptor antagonists.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
