Muscarinic agonists used for urinary retention D. Centrally acting muscle relaxant 2. A nurse is caring for an 80 year-old female client who has a prescription for bethanechol (Urecholine) 50 mg PO three times a day. The nurse should recognize that all except for which one of the following findings is a clinical manifestation of extreme muscarinic stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system? A. Sweating B. Tearing C. Bradycardia D. Hypertension 3. A nurse in a provider’s office is reviewing the health care record of an 82-year old woman who reported urinary incontinence and asked about a prescription for oxybutynin (Ditropan).

Finasteride (Proscar, Propecia) and dutasteride (Avodart) are helpful in the treatment of BPH because of their effect on A. Bladder contractility B. Prostate size C. Bladder pressure D. Activity at select bladder receptor sites 7. Tamsulosin (Flovent) is helpful in the treatment of BPH because of its effect on A. Activity at select bladder receptor sites B. Bladder pressure C. Bladder contractility D. Prostate size
