QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT ANSWERS GRADED
A+ SUCCESS GUARANTEED
Question 1
pts
A patient is given a diagnosis of peptic ulcer disease. A laboratory test
confirms the presence of Helicobacter pylori. The primary care NP orders a
proton pump inhibitor (PPI) before meals twice daily, clarithromycin, and
amoxicillin. After 14 days of treatment, H. pylori is still present. The NP should
order:
continuation of the PPI for 4 to 8 weeks.
a PPI, amoxicillin, and metronidazole for 14 days.
a PPI, clarithromycin, and amoxicillin for 14 more days.
a PPI, bismuth subsalicylate, tetracycline, and metronidazole.
A PPI, along with amoxicillin and metronidazole, is used as first-line
treatment in macrolide-allergic patients and for re-treatment for 14
days if first-line treatment of choice failed because of occasional
resistance to clarithromycin.
Question 2
pts
A patient is newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The primary care
NP reviews this patient’s laboratory tests and notes normal renal function,
increased triglycerides, and deceased HDL levels. The NP should prescribe:
nateglinide (Starlix).

glyburide (Micronase).
colesevelam (Welchol).
metformin (Glucophage).
Metformin is recommended as initial pharmacologic treatment for type 2
diabetes. It has been shown to decrease triglycerides and LDLs.
Question 3
pts
The primary care NP is considering prescribing captopril (Capoten) for a
patient. The NP learns that the patient has decreased renal function and has
renal artery stenosis in the right kidney. The NP should:
initiate ACE inhibitor therapy at a low dose.
consider a different drug class to treat this patient’s symptoms.
give the captopril with a thiazide diuretic to improve renal function.
order lisinopril (Zestril) instead of captopril to avoid increased nephropathy.
Patients with impaired renal function should use low-dose ACE inhibitors. It is
not necessary to avoid ACE inhibitors with unilateral renal stenosis.
