NURS 6521 Advanced Pharmacology

Patient’s Health Needs

The advanced practitioner will come across patients with signs and symptoms that could

point to a number of illnesses; in order to effectively manage the patient, the practitioner must

identify the root cause of the symptoms. The patient may be in the early stages of the

menopausal transition, which would explain her symptoms and warning signs, according to the

facts given in the scenario. Besides, the patient's weight needs to be managed, and her

uncontrolled hypertension needs to be treated. The patient receives comprehensive care from the

advanced practitioner; her well-being should be improved by pharmacotherapeutics and

therapies.

Herbal and homeopathic treatments should be used to treat the patient's premenopausal

symptoms. With a 46-year-old age, the patient is entering the period when menopause will start

to set in as estrogen levels start to decline. Hot flashes, nocturnal sweats, vaginal dryness, and

urine symptoms (genitourinary symptoms), which are associated with menopause, begin between

the ages of 45 and 55 (Trayes & Cokenakes, 2021). The steadily declining estrogen levels are to

blame for these issues. The consumption of herbal and homeopathic medicines might be used to

treat them because they aim to restore hormone levels to normal.

Treatment Regimen

My patient should begin with a modest dose and then reevaluate in 4-6 weeks. She needs

to continue getting yearly PAP smear tests because of her history of an ASCUS. A colposcopy

should be performed whenever this turns negative (Mension et al., 2021). Currently taking the

maximum Norvasc dosage prescribed, my patient's blood pressure is 150/90. At the moment, she

is taking a 25mg daily starting dose of HTCZ. Due to this she could have a dose increase to 50
