BSN 315 EXAM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WITH COMPLETE
SOLUTIONS VERIFIED LATEST UPDATE
cholinergic agents
mimic the action of the parasympathetic nervous system, induce the rest-and-digest
response
Esomeprazole
proton pump inhibitor, may increase the chance of bleeding in a client who is taking
both a PPI and warfarin (Coumadin), which is used in the treatment of deep vein
thrombosis (DVT). The healthcare provider should be informed of the client's recent
history and treatment for DVT prior to giving
Pancrelipase
digests fats
for pancreative enzyme deficiency used every time they eat
vitamin K
warfarin antidote, not present in infants intestinal tract
Oseltamivir (Tamiflu)
Prescribed for influenza
Disulfiram
Causes unpleasant side effects for an individual when alcohol is consumed
Naltrexone

and increased feelings of well-being
Lofexidine (to treat withdrawal symptoms)
The only FDA-approved drug that mitigates withdrawal symptoms associated with
opioid withdrawal
"ine"
antidepressants
describe how sodium and lithium levels are related
sodium and lithium levels are excreted the same way. So a low sodium level causes
your body to retain more lithium possibly leading to toxicity. A high sodium level (or
dehydration) causes the body to excrete more lithium potentially causing sub
therapeutic levels
why is the use of lithium effective in bipolar disease
bipolar is believed to be caused by the destruction of neurons. lithium is believed to
promote growth and protect neurons.
what is the therapeutic level of lithium?
