HONDROS NUR 195 EXAM 1 UPDATED ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWERS VERIFIED 2027 EDITION
1. Lisinopril ( prinivil)
Ace inhibitor -assess Bp and HR before medication given -decreases bp Side effects hypotension
2. Metformin (Glucophage)
Decreases blood sugar - Hold for CT scan with Dye
3. Glipizide
decreases blood sugar - helps pancreas produce more insulin
4. Enoxaparin (Lovanox)
- SUBQ - anti coagulant prophylactic against clots U know its working= their is no clots
5. tpA
Clot buster - bleeding precaution thrombolytic
6. Lasix (furosemide)
Loop diuretic - decreases Bp -decreases water weight ( lose weight) - can cause Hypokalemia
7. Simvastatin ( Zocor)
Decrease Cholesterol -LDL -assess Creatinine and BUN - watch for kidney damage
8. Aspirin
Antiplatelet, antipyretic, anti inflammatory - A in MONA - chewable or enteric coated - Decrease platelet
aggregation
9. Aspart (Novolog) Lispo (Humalog)
Rapid acting, Can be used for coverage - give 10-15 minutes before eating
10. Novolin R or regular insulin
- short acting insulin to lower blood sugar, can be mixed with NPH -Used for blood sugar coverage - IV drip
monitored by the RN - Only insulin IV - Peak is 2-3 hours
11. Glargine (Lantus)
Long-acting insulin -peak less -given once a day - mimics the action of the pancreas.
12. NPH
intermediate acting -cloudy -which can be mixed with regular insulin
13. For sliding scale
- Use Humulin R or Humalog or Novolog
14. LPN scope of practice with insulin
- Can administer SUBQ - No IV insulin push - No Iv insulin Drip
