Question 1 of 5
A 6-year-old boy with bronchial asthma takes the beta-adrenergic agonist agent albuterol. The child's mother tells the nurse that she uses this medication to open her son's airway when he is having trouble breathing. What is the nurse's best response?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Albuterol relieves bronchoconstriction, not inflammation. Confirming its role while educating about comprehensive asthma management (e.g., anti-inflammatory drugs) is appropriate. Overuse doesn't cause bronchitis, usage needs verification, and immediate evaluation isn't indicated.
