Exercise 33

Melany, a 59-year-old woman with a history of heart disease, was placed on omeprazole (proton pump inhibitor), tetracycline, and bismuth to treat her chronic gastric ulcers. During a followup visit two weeks later she reported that she was pain free and did not feel limited by her ulcers anymore. Should Melany and her doctor be content with this outcome? Why or why not?
