Question 1 of 5
Which class of medications increases the availability of serotonin by blocking the reuptake of serotonin at the presynaptic membrane?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). SSRIs block the reuptake of serotonin at the presynaptic membrane, leading to increased availability of serotonin in the synaptic cleft. This helps alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety. Choice B, Polyuria, is a symptom related to excessive urination and is not a class of medication. Choice C, Carbamazepine, is an anticonvulsant and mood stabilizer that works by different mechanisms, not by increasing serotonin availability. Choice D, Lithium, is also a mood stabilizer primarily used in bipolar disorder and does not directly increase serotonin levels.
Question 2 of 5
When administering medications, a nurse would hold which medication for a patient who presents with jaundice? A. Valium B. Divalproex (Depakote) C. Lithium D. Verapamil
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Divalproex (Depakote). Jaundice is a condition characterized by yellowing of the skin and eyes due to liver dysfunction. Divalproex is metabolized in the liver, and in patients with jaundice, liver function may be compromised, leading to potential toxicity. Therefore, holding Divalproex for a patient with jaundice is essential to prevent further liver damage. A: Valium is primarily metabolized in the liver, but it is generally safe to use in patients with mild to moderate liver impairment. C: Lithium is primarily cleared through the kidneys, so liver dysfunction would not directly impact its clearance. D: Verapamil is also primarily metabolized in the liver, but it is not contraindicated in patients with jaundice unless there is severe liver impairment.
