Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reviewing medication records for several clients who have bipolar disorder. The nurse should recognize that which of the following medications are used to treat clients who have bipolar disorder. (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: A,B,C,E
Rationale: The correct answers for medications used to treat bipolar disorder are A (Lithium), B (Valproate), C (Carbamazepine), and E (Paroxetine). Lithium is a mood stabilizer commonly used in bipolar disorder treatment. Valproate and Carbamazepine are also mood stabilizers that help control manic episodes. Paroxetine is an antidepressant that can be used in combination with mood stabilizers. Donepezil is not used to treat bipolar disorder; it is used for Alzheimer's disease. Similarly, Paroxetine is an antidepressant, not a mood stabilizer.
