Indication of H2 antihistamines used - CORRECT
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ANSWERS ✔✔used to inhibit the secretion of gastric acid
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
in patients with gastrointestinal (GI) disorders
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
,Which of the following is a second-generation
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
antihistamine that cannot be removed by hemodialysis? - |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Cetirizine (Zyrtec) |\ |\ |\
Initial selection of antimicrobial therapy is: - CORRECT
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ANSWERS ✔✔Initial selection of antimicrobial therapy is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
typically empiric, meaning before the causative pathogen
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
has been identified
|\ |\
Food-drug or drug-drug interactions with antibacterial |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
medications are usually addressed by: - CORRECT |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ANSWERS ✔✔This interaction is usually addressed by |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
separating the administration times or avoiding the |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
combination
Multiple drug combination treatment for tuberculosis -
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔It has decreased risk of resistance
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Know about description of IFN-B - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔FN-β products have antiviral properties but are used
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

|\ |\ |\ |\
Side effect of first-generation antihistamines related to
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
their anticholinergic activity? - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔dry mouth, dry eyes, urinary retention, constipation,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
and cognitive disturbances. Anticholinergic side effects
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
, can be further exacerbated by other anticholinergic
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
medications, such as tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs). |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Because monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) can also
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
exacerbate anticholinergic side effects, first-generation |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
antihistamines should not be used during treatment or |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
within 2 weeks of MAOI discontinuation
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
How is enterobiasis diagnosed? - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔Pinworm can be diagnosed by perianal swab using |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
adhesive tape that is examined microscopically for eggs

Know tuberculosis treatment. - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔Directly observed therapy (DOT) is a strategy to |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ensure adherence to the drug regimen and is an
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
especially critical element to regimens with any frequency
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
less than daily dosing.
|\ |\ |\ |\
Because these agents are highly susceptible to drug-drug
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
interactions, any exaggerated side effects or inadequate |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
therapeutic responses when using isoniazid and rifamin |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
should be considered in light of potential drug
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
interactions with other medications the patient is taking |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
concurrently.
According to the universal prescribing alerts for |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
