HESI Pharmacology Exam 2 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse initiates an infusion of piperacillin-tazobactam for a client with a urinary tract infection. Five minutes into the infusion, the client reports not feeling well. Which client manifestation should the nurse identify as a reason to stop the infusion?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: A scratchy throat may signal an allergic reaction to piperacillin-tazobactam, a penicillin derivative, potentially progressing to anaphylaxis. Stopping the infusion immediately prevents severe complications. Pupillary constriction, hypertension, and bradycardia are not typical allergic responses and require monitoring but not immediate cessation.
