1. The nurse is teaching a patient how a medication works to treat an illness. To do this, th

2. What does it mean when a drug is described as easy to administer?
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
a. It can be stored indefinitely without need for refrigeration.
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
b. It does not interact significantly with other medications.
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
c. It enhances patient adherence to the drug regimen.
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
d. It is usually relatively inexpensive to produce.
gi gi gi gi gi gi
ANS: C gi
A major benefit of drugs that are easy to administer is that patients taking them are more
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g
likely to comply with the drug regimen. Drugs that are easy to give may have the other
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
attributes listed, but those properties are independent of ease of administration.

effectiveness?

A drug is effective if it produces the intended effects, even if it also produces side effects. Be

individual patient variability might affect the patient‘s response to the medication? (Select allth

The family medical history can indicate genetic factors that may affect a patient‘s response t
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
oa medication. Patients of different ages can respond differently to medications. The patient‘
i gi
g gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
s illness can affect how drugs are metabolized. The chemical stability of the medication and t
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi

1. A patient is using a metered-
gi gi gi gi gi
dose inhaler containing albuterol for asthma. The medicationlabel instructs the patient to
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g gi gi gi gi gi
administer ―2 puffs every 4 hours as needed for coughing or gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
wheezing.‖ The patient reports feeling jittery sometimes when taking the medication, and sh
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
edoesn‘t feel that the medication is always effective. Which is not an appropriate nursing int
i
g gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
ervention for this patient? gi gi gi
a. Asking the patient to demonstrate use of the inhaler gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
b. Assessing the patient‘s exposure to tobacco smoke gi gi gi gi gi gi
c. Auscultating lung sounds and obtaining vital signs gi gi gi gi gi gi
d. Suggesting that the patient use one puff to reduce side effects gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
ANS: D gi
It is not within the nurse‘s scope of practice to change the dose of a medication without an
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
order from a prescriber. Asking the patient to demonstrate inhaler use helps the nurse to ev
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
aluate the patient‘s ability to administer the medication properly and is part of the nurse‘sev
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g
aluation. Assessing tobacco smoke exposure helps the nurse determine whether nondrug th
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
erapies, such a smoke avoidance, can be used as an adjunct to drug therapy. Performing ap
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g
hysical assessment helps the nurse evaluate the patient‘s response to the medication.

2. A postoperative patient is being discharged home with acetaminophen/hydrocodone (Lortab)
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g
for pain. The patient asks the nurse about using Tylenol for fever. Which statement by the n
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
urse is correct? gi gi
a. ―It is not safe to take over-the-counter drugs with prescription medications.‖
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
b. ―Taking the two medications together poses a risk of drug toxicity.‖
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
c. ―There are no known drug interactions, so this will be safe.‖
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
d. ―Tylenol and Lortab are different drugs, so there is no risk of overdose.‖
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
ANS: B gi
Tylenol is the trade name and acetaminophen is the generic name for the same medication. It
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
is important to teach patients to be aware of the different names for the same drug to minimiz
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
ethe risk of overdose. Over-the-
i
g gi gi gi gi
counter (OTC) medications and prescription medications may be taken together unless signifi
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
cant harmful drug interactions are possible. Even though no drug interactions are at play in thi
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
s case, both drugs contain acetaminophen, which could lead to toxicity.
