ATI Pharmacology Final Exam I Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is reviewing a client's daily medications taken at home. Which of the following medications has a risk of dependency if used daily?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Bisacodyl (Dulcolax). Bisacodyl is a stimulant laxative that can lead to dependency when taken daily due to its mechanism of action on the intestines. It can cause the intestines to become reliant on the medication for regular bowel movements, leading to a potential need for increasing doses over time. Psyllium (
A) and Polyethylene glycol (
B) are bulk-forming laxatives that do not carry the same risk of dependency. Ondansetron (
C) is an antiemetic used for nausea and vomiting, not associated with dependency.
