Which medication would the nurse identify as a potential cause for the formation of
abnormally small eyes in the newborn if used during pregnancy?
a. estrogens
b. nitrofurantoin
c. methotrexate
d. valproic acid
o :## b. nitrofurantoin
Nitrofurantoin, an antimicrobial medication, causes formation of abnormally small eyes in
the newborn. Sex hormone supplements, such as estrogens, may cause congenital defects
of female reproductive organs. Methotrexate can cause congenital abnormalities (central
nervous system and limbs malformations) and fetal death. Valproic acid is high teratogenic
and cause neural tube defects, atrial septal defect, cleft palate, hypospadias, polydactyly,
and craniosynostosis.

c. metoprolol
d. propranolol
o :## a. atenolol

cause adverse effects to the neonate. Labetalol and propanolol are safe to administer during
lactation. Metoprolol is considered a safe medication to be taken during lactation
Which hormone levels do not require monitoring during the ministration of menotropins for
infertility?
a. estrogen
b. luteinizing hormone
c. follicle-stimulating hormone
d. gonadotropin-releasing hormone
o :## d. gonadotropin-releasing hormone
Menotropins that are administered for infertility act at the pituitary level. Gonadotropin-
releasing hormones act at the hypothalamus level; therefore this hormone does not need to
be monitored. Menotropins is a standardized mixture of follicle-stimulating hormone and
luteinizing; these hormones should be monitored. Also, estrogen levels need to be
monitored because the luteinizing hormone directly stimulates the production of estrogen

c. death of the conceptus

o :## b. gross malformations
Gross malformations occur if there is exposure to a teratogen during the embryonic period
or the first trimester. During the fetal period, exposure to a teratogen causes delays in
growth and development of the fetus. Death of the conceptus occurs if exposed to a lethal
dose of teratogen during the pre-implantation period. Exposure to a teratogen during the
fetal period (second or third trimester) causes disruption of brain development.
