MULTIPLE CHOICE


1. The nurse is providing care for a patient scheduled to take acarbose (Precose) 25 mg 3
times daily with meals. The patient reports feeling sweaty, weak, and tremulous. Which of the
following actions by the nurse is best?
A. Reassure the patient that these are common side effects with the medication.
B. Call the pharmacy to report an adverse drug reaction.
C. Check the patient’s blood glucose level.

ANS: C

Acarbose alone does not cause hypoglycemia; however, other concurrently administered
hypoglycemic agents may produce hypoglycemia, requiring treatment. Ignoring these
symptoms would be dangerous, but it is not considered an adverse drug reaction requiring an
official report. The patient is experiencing symptoms of hypoglycemia not anemia.

A. Adenosine (Adenocard)
B. Epinephrine (Adrenaline)
C. Atenolol (Tenormin)
D. Asenapine (Saphris)

See Contraindications/Precautions, Interactions, and Dosage for albuterol. Excess inhaler use
may lead to tolerance and paradoxical bronchospasm. Use with caffeine-containing herbs (cola
nut, guarana, tea, coffee) increases stimulant effect. Two inhalations every 4–6 hr or 2

C. “I’m not sure why we should even bother anymore; everything seems so pointless.”
D. “I drink a cup of coffee most days with breakfast.”

risk of suicide attempt/ideation especially during early treatment or dose adjustment; risk may
be greater in children or adolescents. Sedation is an expected side effect. Dry mouth is an
