Week 5 Final Exam: NR568 / NR 568
(Latest Update )
Advanced Pharmacology for the
Adult-Gerontology Primary Care
Nurse Practitioner | Questions with
Verified Answers | 100% Correct |
Grade A - Chamberlain


Question:
Role of androgens in treating anemia
Answer:
relieve anemia by promoting synthesis of erythropoietin, the renal hormone
that stimulates production of red blood cells, and possibly white blood cells
and platelets.




Question:
Preferred administration route of alprostadil and why
Answer:
Intracavernous (a shot into the penis). It is more effective than transurethral.
topical or cream and can be done at home after initial consultation and
education by the provider.

,Question:
Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
Patient Teaching
Answer:
high-fat meal will delay absorption of avanafil, sildenafil, or vardenafil (but
not tadalafil)
grapefruit juice should be avoided because this can raise PDE-5 inhibitor
levels
in men who experience cardiac symptoms (e.g., anginal pain,
lightheadedness) during sex to refrain from further sexual activity and discuss
the event with their prescriber.
seek immediate medical attention if an erection lasts more than 4 h.
Prolonged priapism can cause permanent damage.
stop their PDE-5 inhibitor and seek immediate medical attention if they
experience sudden loss of vision in one or both eyes or if hearing loss
develops.
avoid nitrates for at least 12 h after taking avanafil, for at least 24 h after taking
sildenafil or vardenafil, and for at least 48 h after taking tadalafil.




Question:
Medication Classes used to treat ED
Answer:
PDE-5 Inhibitors (Viagra, Cialis)
Prostaglandin E1 (Alprostadil)
Vasodilator + A-adrenergic antagonist (Papaverine with phentolamine)

, Question:
Testosterone gels (AndroGel, Testim, Vogelxo)
Answer:
(1) cause less local irritation, (2) cannot fall off, and (3) produce more
consistent testosterone levels.
The principal disadvantage of the gels is that testosterone can be transferred
to others by skin-to-skin contact.
This is possible because only 10% of an applied dose is absorbed; the other
90% remains on the skin after the gel dries.




Question:
Vasodilators
Answer:
provide tumescence (engorgement due to vascular congestion) when injected
directly into the corpus cavernosum. Erection develops within 10 minutes and
lasts 2 to 4 hours




Question:
PGE1
Answer:
Relaxation of smooth muscle (arterial, venous, and trabecular), causes a rapid
inflow of arterial blood. Pressure from the engorged penis helps block venous
outflow to promote maintenance of the erect state.
