An adult who is experiencing an acute asthma attack
Question 1 of 5
A nurse in an emergency department is caring for an adult who is experiencing an acute asthma attack. Which of the following medications should the nurse expect to administer?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Albuterol. Albuterol is a short-acting beta agonist bronchodilator commonly used to quickly relieve bronchospasm during an acute asthma attack. It works by relaxing the muscles in the airways, allowing for easier breathing. Montelukast (
A), Budesonide (
B), and Prednisone (
C) are all medications used for long-term control and prevention of asthma symptoms, not for immediate relief during an acute attack. Albuterol is the appropriate choice in this scenario to provide prompt relief and improve breathing.
