,A 32-year-old woman presents to the clinic with a persistent, worsening cough for 2 weeks. She reports
coughing spells and states that it is difficult to stop coughing once it starts. The nurse practitioner
suspects acute bronchitis due to pertussis because of a local outbreak. Which of the following is the
most appropriate plan of care?
A.
Educate the patient about symptomatic relief
B.
Follow up in 1 week if the cough persists
C.
Prescribe azithromycin (Zithromax)
D.

A patient tells the nurse practitioner that she recently started taking the supplement St. John's wort after
reading about its benefits online. Which of the following medications, if being actively consumed, must
be immediately stopped?
A. Benadryl
B. Famotidine (Pepcid)
C. Metformnin (Glucophage)
D. Sumatriptan (Imitrex) - correct answer-D. Sumatriptan (imitrex)
Sumatriptan (Imitrex) (D) is a medication used to treat migraines and belongs to a drug class known as
serotonin agonists. When used in conjunction with St. John's wort, it may increase the risk of serotonin
syndrome, a potentially life-threatening condition.

disorder?

C. Insomnia
D. Irritabilty - correct answer-B. Hypervigilance

also include symptoms of depressed mood, anhedonia, weight loss or gain, and low energy. However,
hypervigilance (B) is not a symptom associated with this diagnosis.
A patient with type 1 diabetes presents for a follow-up visit. He has been stable on his medication
regimen but is worried because he is between jobs and will be without health insurance coverage for a
few months. He asks if there are less expensive insulin options to get him through this time. Which of the
following would be good options for this patient, given his circumstance?
The least expensive insulin type listed in this question is insulin isophane (C) (neutral protamine
Hagedorn insulin). There are also often pharmacy-specific coupons that can be used on insulin, so
helping patients apply for and navigate these programs can be instrumental in managing their diabetes.
Another inexpensive option is regular insulin.Insulin analogs (glargine, detemir, degludec, lispro, and
aspart) are significantly more expensive than human insulin (isophane, regular). Insulins modified by
, manufacturers, especially when sold as brand-name medications, tend to be more expensive due to this
modification. While analogs offer alternate lengths of action and convenience, there is no well-
documented clinical evidence that patient outcomes are improved with differing brands. Therefore,
maintaining a patient's blood glucose level through outcome-focused treatment is more valuable than a
process-focused plan based on medication.
A 40-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes presents to the clinic with concerns of spiking blood sugar
between lunch and dinner. She states she is on a rapid-acting insulin sliding scale and long-acting insulin.
Which change should be implemented to help prevent or curb this glycemic spike?
A.
Add a dose of mealtime insulin aspart (Novolog) at lunch
B.
Add insulin detemir (Levemir) at night
C.
Increase her insulin glargine (Lantus)
D.
Prescribe a dose of neutral protamine Hagedorn insulin with dinner - correct answer-A. Add a dose of
mealtime insulin aspart (Novolog) at lunch
Insulin aspart (Novolog) (A) is a rapid acting insulin that is commonly dosed with meals and as a sliding
scale regimen based on a patient's glucose prior to eating (preprandial). It is the appropriate insulin to
add as a mealtime dose when patients experience blood glucose spikes between meals because of its
short-acting properties. Peak time action of insulin aspart is 2 hours with initial effect within the first 30
minutes, making it an ideal choice to control expected postprandial glycemic spikes
Which of the following conditions is associated with an increased risk for conductive hearing loss?
A.
Acoustic neuroma
