3. The nurse is teaching a patient who will be discharged home with a prescription for an

enteric-coated tablet. Which statement by the patient indicates understanding of the teaching?
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
a. I may crush the tablet and put it in applesauce to improve absorption.

b. I should consume acidic foods to enhance absorption of this medication.

ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss ANS: C ss
Enteric-coated tablets resist disintegration in the acidic environment of the stomach and
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss disintegrate when they reach the small intestine. There is usually some delay in onset of
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss actions after taking these medications. Enteric-coated tablets should not be crushed or
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss chewed, which would alter the time and location of absorption. Acidic foods will not enhance
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
the absorption of the medication. The patient should not to eat high-fat food before ingesting
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss an enteric-coated tablet, because high-fat foods decrease the absorption rate.

4. A patient who is newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus asks why insulin must
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss be given by subcutaneous injection instead of by mouth. The nurse will explain that this is
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss because
a. absorption is diminished by the first-pass effects in the liver.
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
b. absorption is faster when insulin is given subcutaneously.
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
c. digestive enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract prevent absorption.
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
d. the oral form is less predictable with more adverse effects.
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss ANS: C ss
Insulin, growth hormones, and other protein-based drugs are destroyed in the small intestine by
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss digestive enzymes and must be given parenterally. Because insulin is destroyed by digestive
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss enzymes, it would not make it to the liver for metabolism with a first-pass effect. Subcutaneous
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss tissue has fewer blood vessels, so absorption is slower in such tissue. Insulin is given
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ss subcutaneously because it is desirable to have it absorb slowly. ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
