1. Apatient\ diagnosed\ with\ chronic\pain\ calls\ to\ request\ an\ oxycodone\ (Oxycontin)\ refill.\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
Which\ action\ should\ the\ prescriber\ take\ initially?
J J J J J J
a. Fax\ the\ renewal\ order\to\the\ pharmacy. J J J J J J
b. Arrange\to\schedule\ an\ appointment\ with\the\patient. J J J J J J J
c. Verify\the\patient’s\ adherence\to\the\prescribed\ drug\regimen. J J J J J J J J
d. Determine\the\patient’s\current\medication\dosage\and\pain\level. J J J J J J J J
ANS:\ B J
Schedule\ II\medications\ are\not\ eligible\ for\refills,\ and\ prescriptions\ must\ be\handwritten.\ It\ is\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
important\ to\ verify\ the\ patient’s\ adherence\ to\ the\ drug\ regimen\ and\ determine\ the\ current\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
dosage\ of\ medication\ and\ pain\ level;\ however,\ this\ can\ be\ accomplished\ by\ scheduling\ an\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
appointment\ and\ evaluating\ the\ patient\ in\ person. J J J J J J
2. A\ metered-dose\ albuterol\ inhaler\ is\ prescribed\ for\ asthma\ management.\ The\ patient\ reports\
J J J J J J J J J J J J
feeling\ jittery\sometimes\ when\ taking\ the\ medication,\ and\ does\ not\ feel\ that\ the\medication\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
is\ always\ effective.\ Which\ action\ will\ the\ provider\ take\ to\ best\ minimize\ patient\ risks\ and\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
maximize\ medication\ effectiveness? J J
a. Ask\the\patient\ to\demonstrate\use\ of\ the\inhaler\ and\ assess\ effectiveness.
J J J J J J J J J J J
b. Assess\the\patient’s\exposure\to\first-\and\second-hand\tobacco\ smoke. J J J J J J J J J
c. Auscultate\the\patient's\l\unW\g\ W

taSin\ other\relevant\ vital\ signs. J J J J J J J J J J
d. Decrease\the\dosage\to\ reduce\side\ effects. J J J J J J
ANS:\ C J
Assessing\ and\ evaluating\ lung\ sounds\ as\ well\ as\ other\ vital\ signs\ helps\ determine\ the\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
patient's\ physical\ response\ to\ the\ medication\ and\ allows\ comparison\ to\ the\patient's\ baseline\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
vital\ signs.\ Asking\ the\ patient\ to\ demonstrate\ inhaler\ use\ helps\ to\ evaluate\ the\ patient’s\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
ability\to\ administer\ the\ medication\ properly\ and\ is\ part\of\ an\ effective\ evaluation,\ but\ is\ not\ a\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
priority\ intervention\ based\ on\ the\ patient’s\ current\ report.\ Assessing\ tobacco\ smoke\
J J J J J J J J J J J
exposure\ helps\ determine\ whether\ nondrug\therapies,\ such\ as\ smoke\ avoidance,\ can\ be\ used\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
as\ an\ adjunct\ to\ drug\ therapy,\ but\ does\ not\ relate\ to\ the\ patient’s\ current\ problem.\ Rewriting\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
the\ prescription\ to\ decrease\ the\ dosage\ may\ address\ the\ degree\ of\ jitteriness\ experienced,
J J J J J J J J J J J J
but\ does\ not\ address\ the\ patient’s\ concern\ that\ the\ drug\ is\ not\ always\ effective.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
3. A\patient\ is\ prescribed\ metronidazole\ for\bacterial\ vaginosis.\ Which\ patient\ history\finding\
J J J J J J J J J J J J
would\ be\ most\ concerning\ to\ the\ provider?
J J J J J J
a. The\patient\ had\ a\ recent\ yeast\ infection.J J J J J J
b. There\is\ a\ family\history\of\cervical\ cancer. J J J J J J J
c. The\patient\ drinks\two\ glasses\of\ wine\ every\night.
J J J J J J J J
d. The\patient\is\unemployed.\ J J J J

J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
Patients\ taking\ metronidazole\ should\ be\ educated\ not\ to\ drink\ alcohol\ to\ prevent\ a\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
disulfiram-like\ reaction.\ It\ would\ be\ concerning\ that\ the\ patient\ drinks\ wine\ daily.\ History\ J J J J J J J J J J J J J
of\ a\ yeast\ infection\ may\ indicate\ increased\ risk\ for\ recurrence\ with\ administration\ of\ an\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
antimicrobial.\ A\ family\ history\ of\ cervical\ cancer\ is\ not\ related\ to\ administration\ of\ J J J J J J J J J J J J J
metronidazole.\ Unemployment\ can\ indicate\ lack\ of\insurance\ coverage,\ which\ may\limit\ the\ J J J J J J J J J J J J
patient’s\ ability\ to\ purchase\ medications;\ however,\ generic\ metronidazole\ is\ one\ of\ the\ less\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
expensive\ medications. J
4. The\provider\prepares\ a\ patient\ with\ newly\diagnosed\ type\ 1\ diabetes\ for\ hospital\ discharge.\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
Which\ action\ by\ the\ provider\ will\ best\ support\ the\ patient’s\ ability\ to\ effectively\ manage\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
medication\ therapy? J
a. Asking\the\patient\to\demonstrate\how\to\measure\and\administer\insulin J J J J J J J J J J
b. Discussing\methods\of\storing\insulin\ and\discarding\syringes J J J J J J J
c. Giving\information\ about\ how\diet\and\exercise\affect\insulin\ requirements J J J J J J J J J
d. Teaching\the\patient\about\the\long-term\consequences\of\poor\diabetes\ control J J J J J J J J J J
ANS:\ A J
Because\ insulin\ must\ be\ given\ correctly\ to\ control\ symptoms\ and\ prevent\ an\ overdose,\ it\ is\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
most\ important\ for\ the\ patient\ to\ know\ how\ to\ measure\ and\ administer\ it.\ Asking\ for\ a\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
demonstration\ of\ technique\is\ the\best\ way\to\ determine\whether\the\ patient\ has\ understood\ J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
the\ teaching.\ The\ other\ teaching\ points\ are\ important\ as\ well,\ but\ they\ are\ not\ as\ critical.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
5. A\ patient\ reports\ that\ a\ medication\ prescribed\ for\ recurrent\ migraine\ headaches\ is\ not\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
working.\ Which\action\ is\ the\prescriber’s\priority\ when\addressing\the\ patient's\ concern?
J J J J J J J J J J J
a. Ask\the\patient\ about\the\ number\and\ frequency\of\ tablets\taken.
J J J J J J J J J J
b. Assess\ the\patient’s\ headache\ pain\ on\ a\ scale\ from\ 1\ to\10. J J J J J J J J J J J
c. Prescribe\ a\ new\ medicationWfWorWm.iTgrBaiSnMe\ .
mWanSagement. J J J J
d. Suggest\biofeedback\ as\ an\adjunct\to\drug\therapy. J J J J J J J
ANS:\ A J
When\ evaluating\ the\ effectiveness\ of\ a\ drug,\ it\ is\ important\ to\ determine\ how\ often\ the\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
patient\ is\ using\ the\ drug.\ Asking\ the\ patient\ to\ identify\how\ many\tablets\ are\ taken\ and\ how\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
often\ helps\ the\ provider\ determine\ effective\ dosages\ and\ adherence\ to\ the\ medication\
J J J J J J J J J J J J
regimen.\ The\ patient\ has\ already\ stated\ that\ the\ medication\ is\ not\ working;\ the\ actual\ level\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
of\ pain\ may\ determine\ the\ degree\ to\ which\ it\ is\ not\ working,\ but\ it\ does\ not\ help\ the\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
provider\ to\ determine\ why\ it\ is\ not\ working.\ The\ assessment\ process\ should\ gather\ as\ much\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
information\ about\ compliance,\ symptoms,\ and\ drug\ effectiveness\ as\ possible\ before\ J J J J J J J J J J
enacting\ a\ change\ in\ treatment.\ Biofeedback\ may\ be\ an\ effective\ adjunct\ to\ treatment,\ but\ it\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
should\ not\ be\ recommended\ without\ complete\ information\ about\ drug\ effectiveness.
J J J J J J J J J
6. The\ drug\ manual\ states\ that\ older\ adult\ patients\ are\ at\ increased\ risk\ for\ hepatotoxicity.\
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
Which\ action\is\ most\ important\ when\prescribing\ this\ medication\to\an\80-year-old\ patient?
J J J J J J J J J J J J
a. Obtaining\baseline\liver\function\ studies J J J J
b. Ensuring\that\ the\drug\ is\ taken\ in\ the\correct\ dose\ at\the\correct\ time J J J J J J J J J J J J J
c. Discontinuing\the\order;\ the\drug\is\ contraindicated\ for\this\ patient J J J J J J J J J
d. Giving\the\medication\ intravenously\to\avoid\ first\ pass\metabolism\ J J J J J J J J J
