NCLEX PN Prep Questions Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A client with tuberculosis has an order for Rifadin (rifampin). What vitamin is usually given with rifampin?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is given with rifampin to prevent peripheral neuropathy, a side effect. Other vitamins are not typically associated with rifampin therapy.

Question 2 of 5

Which statements made by the client demonstrate a correct understanding of the home care of an ascending colostomy? Select all that apply.

Correct Answer: A,C

Rationale: Enteric-coated medications may not dissolve properly in an ascending colostomy due to shorter intestinal transit time, requiring provider consultation. Limiting odor-causing foods like broccoli helps manage odor. Irrigation is typically for descending/sigmoid colostomies, not ascending. Fluid intake should be adequate (not restricted), and pouches should be emptied when one-third to half full to prevent leaks.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is talking with a client with alcohol use disorder who has a new prescription for disulfiram. Which of the following information should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Disulfiram causes severe adverse reactions when alcohol is consumed, even in small amounts found in products like mouthwash. Clients must avoid all alcohol-containing products to prevent a disulfiram-alcohol reaction, which can include nausea, vomiting, and flushing.

Question 4 of 5

The nurse is caring for a 2 year-old who is being treated with chelation therapy, calcium disodium edetate, for lead poisoning. The nurse should be alert for which of the following side effects?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Nephrotoxicity. Nephrotoxicity is a common side effect of calcium disodium edetate, in addition to lead poisoning in general.

Question 5 of 5

A woman who comes in for prenatal care has a history of herpes with outbreaks that occur every six months to a year. She asks if this means she will have a cesarean delivery. How should the nurse respond?

Correct Answer: A
