Question 1 of 5
Which of the following medications is administered during an acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction and continued indefinitely after?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Aspirin. Aspirin is administered during an acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction to prevent further clot formation by inhibiting platelet aggregation. It is continued indefinitely after the event to reduce the risk of future cardiovascular events. Morphine is used for pain relief, heparin is an anticoagulant, and streptokinase is a fibrinolytic agent used to dissolve clots during acute events, but they are not continued indefinitely post-MI.
