3. The nurse is teaching a patient who will be discharged home with a prescription for an enteric- coated
tablet. Which statement by the patient indicates understanding of the teaching?
a. I may crush the tablet and put it in applesauce to improve absorption.
b. I should consume acidic foods to enhance absorption of this medication.
c. I should expect a delay in onset of the drugs effects after taking the tablet.
d. I should take this medication with high-fat foods to improve its action. CORRECT ANSWER: C
Enteric-coated tablets resist disintegration in the acidic environment of the stomach and disintegrate when
they reach the small intestine. There is usually some delay in onset of actions after taking these
Mbuthia
medications. Enteric-coated tablets should not be crushed or chewed, which would alter the time and
location of absorption. Acidic foods will not enhance the absorption of the medication. The patient should

d. the oral form is less predictable with more adverse effects. CORRECT ANSWER: C
Insulin, growth hormones, and other protein-based drugs are destroyed in the small intestine by digestive
kl
enzymes and must be given parenterally. Because insulin is destroyed by digestive enzymes, it would not
make it to the liver for metabolism with a first-pass effect. Subcutaneous tissue has fewer blood vessels,
yn
so absorption is slower in such tissue. Insulin is given subcutaneously because it is desirable to have it
absorb slowly.
