Question 1 of 5

The child, admitted to the ED, is experiencing nausea and vomiting, salivation, respiratory muscle weakness, and depressed reflexes an hour after exposure to pesticides. Which medications should the nurse anticipate administering to the child?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A: Flumazenil (Romazicon) antagonizes the effects of benzodiazepines on the CNS, such as sedation, impaired recall, and psychomotor impairment. B: An organophosphate base in pesticides causes acetylcholine to accumulate at neuromuscular junctions. Atropine (Atropine), an anticholinergic medication, and pralidoxime chloride (Protopam), a cholinesterase reactivator, are effective antidotes to reverse the symptoms. C: Epinephrine (EpiPen) is an alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonist and cardiac stimulant that strengthens myocardial contractions, increases systolic BP, increases cardiac rate and output, and constricts bronchial arterioles, inhibiting histamine release. Naloxone (Narcan) is a narcotic antagonist that reverses the effects of opiates. D: Digoxin immune Fab (Digibind) is the antidote for digoxin and digitoxin, which acts by complexing with circulating digoxin or digitoxin, preventing the drug from binding at receptor sites.
