Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a client who has a new diagnosis of asthma. Which of the following medications should the nurse instruct the client to use to abort an acute asthma attack?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Abuterol. Albuterol is a short-acting beta-agonist bronchodilator that is used to abort acute asthma attacks by quickly relaxing the airway muscles and opening the airways, making it easier to breathe. It provides quick relief of symptoms during an asthma attack. Salmeterol (
A) and Formoterol (
C) are long-acting beta-agonists used for long-term control, not for acute attacks. Beclomethasone (
B) is an inhaled corticosteroid used for long-term control of asthma symptoms, not for acute attacks.
