A nurse is assessing a patient for signs of a drug interaction. Which of the following is a potential sign of a drug interaction?

The patient's symptoms improve as expected.
The patient experiences an unexpected or exaggerated drug effect.
The patient reports feeling better than usual.
The patient's vital signs remain stable.

The nurse is teaching a patient about drug half-life. The nurse explains that it is the time required for:

The drug to reach its peak effect.
Half of the drug to be eliminated from the body.
The drug to be completely absorbed.
The drug to cause a side effect.

The nurse is caring for a patient who has a low serum albumin level. This can lead to increased free drug levels and potential toxicity for drugs that are:

Not protein-bound.
Highly protein-bound.
Excreted unchanged by the kidneys.
Metabolized rapidly.

A nurse is administering a medication through a nasogastric (NG) tube. Before administration, the nurse should:

Administer all medications together without flushing.
Crush extended-release tablets.
Flush the tube with water before and after medication administration.
Mix medications with the feeding formula.

The nurse is assessing a patient for the therapeutic effect of an antihypertensive medication. Which finding indicates the medication is effective?

Increased blood pressure.
Decreased heart rate.
Reduced blood pressure.
Increased respiratory rate.

A patient asks the nurse about the difference between a “trade name” and a “generic name.” The nurse explains that the trade name is:

The official, non-proprietary name.
The same as the chemical name.
The proprietary or brand name chosen by the pharmaceutical company.
The name used by pharmacists only.

The nurse is teaching a patient about medication reconciliation. This process involves:

Discarding all old medications.
Creating a complete and accurate list of all medications the patient is taking.
Only listing prescription medications.
Relying on the patient's memory for their medication list.

A nurse is administering a medication rectally. This route is typically used when:

Rapid systemic effect is desired.
The patient is NPO or vomiting.
The drug has a strong first-pass effect.
Precise dosing is critical.

The nurse is administering a medication that is a controlled substance. After administration, the nurse must:

Discard the remaining medication in the trash.
Have another nurse witness and document the disposal of any wasted medication.
Return the medication to the patient's bedside.
Leave the medication unsecured.

A patient is receiving a medication that is primarily metabolized by the CYP450 enzyme system in the liver. If the patient starts taking a drug that is a strong CYP450 enzyme inhibitor, the nurse should anticipate:

Decreased levels of the first medication.
Increased levels and potential toxicity of the first medication.
No change in the levels of the first medication.
Faster excretion of the first medication.

A patient is prescribed a medication that has a half-life of 6 hours. If the patient takes 100 mg at 8:00 AM, how much of the drug will remain in the body at 2:00 PM?

100 mg
50 mg
25 mg
12.5 mg

The nurse is explaining that some drugs are excreted via the kidneys. The primary functional unit of the kidney responsible for drug excretion is the:

Glomerulus.
Nephron.
Renal artery.
Ureter.

A patient is prescribed an antibiotic. The nurse teaches the patient to avoid taking it with milk or antacids, as this can interfere with its absorption. This is an example of a drug interaction affecting:

Absorption.
Distribution.
Metabolism.
Excretion.

The nurse is teaching a patient about drug dependence. The nurse explains that physical dependence is characterized by:

Only psychological craving for the drug.
Withdrawal symptoms if the drug is discontinued abruptly.
The need for increasing doses to achieve the same effect.
A desire to take the drug for pleasure.

The nurse is calculating a medication dose for a child who weighs 30 kg. The order is for 5 mg/kg. How many milligrams should the nurse administer?

5 mg
30 mg
150 mg
6 mg

A nurse is preparing to administer an intravenous push medication. Before administration, the nurse should:

Administer it rapidly.
Assess for IV patency and compatibility.
Mix it with other IV medications.
Administer it over 5 seconds regardless of drug.

The nurse is teaching a patient about the common side effects of a new medication. A “side effect” is best described as:

A harmful and unintended response to a medication.
Any unintended effect of a medication, expected or unexpected.
An unavoidable, secondary drug effect at therapeutic doses.
A life-threatening reaction to a medication.

A patient is prescribed two medications. One medication causes increased metabolism of the other drug. This is an example of a drug interaction involving:

Increased absorption.
Altered distribution.
Altered metabolism.
Altered excretion.

A patient is prescribed a medication that causes gastric distress. The medication has an enteric coating. The nurse should instruct the patient to:

Chew the tablet before swallowing.
Crush the tablet before swallowing.
Dissolve the tablet in water.
Swallow the tablet whole.
