Question 1 of 5
A nurse in an emergency department is caring for a child who is experiencing an acute asthma. Which of the following medications should the nurse expect to administer first?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Albuterol. Albuterol is a short-acting bronchodilator that provides quick relief by relaxing the muscles in the airways, making it easier for the child to breathe during an acute asthma attack. Administering Albuterol first helps to quickly open up the airways and improve breathing. Montelukast (
A) is a leukotriene receptor antagonist used for long-term asthma control. Fluticasone (
C) and Budesonide (
D) are inhaled corticosteroids used for long-term asthma management and do not provide immediate relief during an acute attack.
