A nurse is working with a woman who has been diagnosed with severe fibrocystic breast disease. After describing the medications that can be used as treatment, the nurse determines that additional teaching is needed when the client identifies which drug is being used.
Correct Answer: Penicillin, an antibiotic, has no role in treating fibrocystic breast disease, which involves hormonal changes. Danazol, bromocriptine, and tamoxifen are used to manage symptoms by altering hormone levels.

Question 2 of 5
A nurse is reviewing contraception options for four clients. The nurse should identify which of the following clients has a contraindication for receiving oral contraceptives.

Extract:
A client receiving Ringer's lactate at 120 mL/hr with a drop factor of 10 gtt/mL
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer Ringer's lactate by continuous IV infusion at 120 mL/hr. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing is 10 gtt/mL. The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many gtt/min? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: Using the formula gtt/min = (mL/hr x drop factor) / 60, calculate: (120 x 10) / 60 = 20 gtt/min.
