When obtaining a drug history from Harold, he gives you a complete list of his prescription medications. He denies taking any other drugs, but you find that he occasionally takes aspirin for his arthritis flare ups. This is an example of:
 
  1. His appropriately only telling you about his regularly prescribed medications
  2. His hiding information regarding his inappropriate use of aspirin from you
  3. A common misconception that intermittently taken over-the counter medications are not an important part of his drug history
  4. A common misuse of over-the-counter aspirin

Question 2

Charlie is a 65-year-old male who has been diagnosed with hypertension and benign prostatic hyperplasia. Doxazosin has been chosen to treat his hypertension because it:
 
  1. Increases peripheral vasoconstriction
  2. Decreases detrusor muscle contractility
  3. Lowers supine blood pressure more than standing pressure
  4. Relaxes smooth muscle in the bladder neck
