Answer to Question 1

Ans: B, C, E
Feedback:
Mast cell aerosols such as cromolyn and inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) such as fluticasone and budesonide/formoterol have been associated with the development of oral thrush. Therefore, the client needs instructions on how to reduce his risk. Albuterol, a short-acting beta-2 agonist, and tiotropium, a cholinergic blocker, are not associated with the development of thrush.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B, C, D
Feedback:
To decrease the likelihood of developing oral thrush, a client should use strict oral hygiene, cleanse the inhaler as directed in the package instructions, and use proper technique when administering a dose. There is no need to avoid eating after administration, and using the drug only every other day would not be effective.
