beta-blockers.

calcium channel blockers. - ANSWER angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors.


A 48-year-old patient with diabetes, hypertension, and renal insufficiency is taking

inhibiting the binding of angiotensin II to angiotensin I receptor sites on vascular
smooth muscles.
inhibiting the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, blocking the renin-
angiotensin system. - ANSWER inhibiting the binding of angiotensin II to
angiotensin I receptor sites on vascular smooth muscles.


Fluoroquinolones, such as ciprofloxacin (Cipro), are a preferred choice in the

decreases peripheral vascular resistance and urinary output.
decreases water permeability of the distal convoluted tubules and collecting duct
cells in the kidneys.
increases sodium absorption across the ascending loop of Henle and decreases
permeability of urea and osmolality.
increases water reabsorption in the renal collecting ducts and results in an
increased urine osmolality. - ANSWER increases water reabsorption in the
renal collecting ducts and results in an increased urine osmolality.


In the case of non-gonococcal urethritis, the patient should be treated with:
azithromycin (Zithromax) 1 gram orally.
ceftriaxone (Rocephin) 250 mg orally.
azithromycin (Zithromax) 1 gram orally plus ceftriaxone (Rocephin) 250 mg
