Question 1 of 5
Which medication classification would the nurse recognize as effective in the treatment of Tourette's disorder?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Antipsychotic medications. Antipsychotics, like haloperidol or risperidone, are recognized as effective in treating Tourette's disorder due to their ability to reduce tics and other symptoms by modulating dopamine activity. Other options such as antimanic medications (B), tricyclic antidepressants (C), and MAOIs (D) are not typically used as first-line treatments for Tourette's. Antimanic medications are more commonly used for bipolar disorder, tricyclic antidepressants may exacerbate tics, and MAOIs have limited evidence for effectiveness in Tourette's.
