NR 508 Week 1 Quiz
Question 1. Osteopenia is diagnosed in a 55-year-old woman who has not had
a period in 15 months. She has a positive family history of breast
cancer. The primary care NP should recommend:
testosterone therapy.
estrogen-only therapy.
nonhormonal drugs for osteoporosis.
estrogen-progesterone therapy for 1 to 2 years.
Explanation: Although estrogen slows the progression of osteoporosis, it also increases
the risk of breast cancer when initiated early in menopause. This woman
should receive a nonhormonal treatment for osteoporosis and may receive
HT in 5 years if menopausal symptoms persist. Testosterone therapy,
estrogen-only therapy, and estrogen-progesterone therapy are not indicated.
Question 2. A patient takes a cardiac medication that has a very narrow
therapeutic range. The primary care NP learns that the particular
, brand the patient is taking is no longer covered by the patient’s
medical plan. The NP knows that the bioavailability of the drug
varies from brand to brand. The NP should:
contact the insurance provider to explain why this particular
formulation is necessary.
change the patient’s medication to a different drug class that
doesn’t have these bioavailability variations.
accept the situation and monitor the patient closely for drug
effects with each prescription refill.
ask the pharmaceutical company that makes the drug for
samples so that the patient does not incur out-of-pocket expense.
Explanation: In this case, the NP should advocate for the desired drug because
changing the drug can have life-threatening consequences. If this fails,
other options may have to be explored.
Question 3. A patient brings written information about a medication to a
primary care NP about a new drug called Prism and wants to know
