Answers

A nurse is teaching a newly licensed nurse about crushing medications. The
nurse should explain that which of the following medications can be crushed?


Extended-release oxycodone
Sublingual nitroglycerine
Enteric-coated aspirin
Sucralfate tablets
Sucralfate tablets


The nurse should explain that certain medications, such as those that are scored, can
be safely crushed and mixed with food or water for a client who has difficulty
swallowing. The nurse should check with the pharmacist before crushing a medication
to make certain it can safely be crushed.
A nurse is caring for a client who reports severe back pain at 1400. The client's
prescriptions include oxycodone extended-release 20 mg PO every 12 hr (last
dose received at 0600) and oxycodone immediate-release 5 mg PO every 4 hr
PRN (last dose received at 2300 the day before). Which of the following actions
should the nurse take?


Contact the provider to request an order for a different pain medication.
Administer oxycodone immediate-release 5 mg PO at 1600.
Administer oxycodone immediate-release 5 mg PO now.
Contact the provider to request an increase in the oxycodone extended-release
dose.
Administer oxycodone immediate-release 5 mg PO now.

, It has been 15 hr since the previous dose of oxycodone immediate-release, and the
medication is prescribed every 4 hr as needed, so the nurse should prepare to
administer a dose now to treat the client's pain.
A nurse is reviewing a client's prescriptions. The nurse should contact the
provider to clarify which of the following prescriptions?

Morphine 2.5 mg IV bolus PRN for incisional pain
Regular insulin 7 units subcutaneous 30 min before breakfast and dinner
Lisinopril 20 mg PO every 12 hr. Hold for systolic BP less than 110 mm Hg
Morphine 2.5 mg IV bolus PRN for incisional pain


This prescription requires clarification because it is missing the frequency of medication
administration.
