MULTIPLE |CHOICE

1. The |following |medication |order |is |in |the |patient’s |medication |administration |record |(MAR):

methylPREDnisolone |40 |mg |PO |daily |at |0900.

After |reading |the |order, |the |nurse |correctly |determines:
A “PO” |is |an |inappropriate |abbreviation.
B the |medication |order |is |written |correctly.
C 40 |mg |should |be |written |as |40mg.
D tall |man |lettering |indicates |that |the |drug |is |a |narcotic.

ANS: |B
Feedback
The |medication |order |has |all |the |required |components |(drug |name, |dose, |route, |and
|frequency |of |administration) |for |a |drug |order. |“PO” |is |an |appropriate |abbreviation;

|40 |mg |is |written |correctly |with |a |space |between |the |dose |and |the |unit |of

|measurement. |Tall |man |lettering |is |used |to |distinguish |the |drug |from |another |drug

with |a |similar |name.



2. Which |of |the |following |accurately |describes |the |“Boxed |Warning” |found |on |a |drug |label?
A It |is |primarily |is |used |to |identify |the |safe |dose |for |the |patient.
B It |is |commonly |found |on |all |drug |labels.
C It |identifies |serious |potential |risks |and |side |effects |related |to |drug |use.
D It |protects |the |patient |by |providing |information |to |decrease |side |effects.

ANS: |C
Feedback
A |drug |label |with |a |boxed |warning |provides |information |to |healthcare |professionals
|and |patients |regarding |the |serious |risks |and |side |effects |related |to |the |drug. |The

|Boxed |Warning |is |not |the |primary |source |for |identifying |the |patient’s |drug |dosage.

The |warning |is |found |on |specific |prescription |medications |and |does |not |provide
|information |to |reduce |or |decrease |side |effects.




3. When |practicing |safety |in |the |administration |of |medication, |for |which |of |the |following
|medication |orders |should |a |nurse |seek |clarification |before |the |administration |of |the

|medication?
