HESI Milestone Exam 1 (2025) QUESTIONS
AND ALL CORRECT ANSWERS 100%
SOLVED AND GUARANTEED SUCCESS!!
Histamine1 blockers action(mine, zine, dine) Ans: bind
selectively to H1-histaminic receptors, blocking the actions of
histamine at these sites
H1 antagonists are useful in treating Ans: -mild
allergies(seasonal rhinitis)
-severe allergies(anaphylaxis)
-motion sickness
-insomnia
-common cold
Histamine (H2)-Receptor Antagonists action(tidine) Ans: block
the H2 receptors responsible for stimulating the secretion of
gastric acid
Exenatide (Byetta) hypoglycemia Ans: -can occur right after
meals
-for severe hypoglycemia give IV dextrose
Exenatide (Byetta) hypoglycemia teaching Ans: -teach about
s/s of hypoglycemia(cold and clammy give them candy)
-have glucagon emergency kit available
, Page | 2
-regular monitoring of A1c levels are required
Exenatide (Byetta) hypoglycemia causes Ans: -insulin overdose
-reduced food intake
-vomiting and diarrhea
-excessive alcohol intake
-unaccustomed exercise
-termination of pregnancy
signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia Ans: -tachycardia
-palpitations
-sweating
-nervousness
-headache
-confusion
-drowsiness
-fatigue
antitussives therapeutic action is to Ans: Act on the cough
control center in the medulla to suppress the cough reflex; used
for a cough that is nonproductive and irritating
, Page | 3
Anaphylaxis‐PCN Ans: -laryngeal edema, bronchoconstriction,
severe hypotension= immediate hypersensitivity reaction
Anaphylaxis treatment Ans: epinephrine (subQ, IM, or IV) plus
respiratory support
What drugs are effective and safe alternatives for patients with
penicillin allergies? Ans: vancomycin, erythromycin, and
clindamycin
To ensure prompt treatment if anaphylaxis should develop
patients should be? Ans: observed for at least 30 minutes after
drug injection (i.e., until the risk of an anaphylactic reaction has
passed).
To minimize the chances of an anaphylactic reaction, penicillin
should be administered Ans: an initial small dose is followed at
60-minute intervals by progressively larger doses until the full
therapeutic dose has been achieved
Morphine overdose treatment Ans: -Naloxone (narcan)
-Intravenous, IM, and subQ. For initial treatment, administer IV
CT‐diarrhea‐action Ans: -decrease intestinal motility and
thereby slow intestinal transit, which allows more time for
absorption of fluid and electrolytes
-activation of opioid receptors decreases secretion of fluid into
the small intestine and increases absorption of fluid and salt.
ACE inhibitor‐hyperkalemia Ans: -Inhibition of aldosterone
release (secondary to inhibition of angiotensin II production)
can cause potassium retention by the kidney.
