Answer to Question 1

2. Diazepam

Rationale:
Mellow yellows are a type of hallucinogen. Diazepam can be prescribed to manage signs of an overdose. Narcan is used to treat an overdose of opiates. Haldol can be administered to manage an overdose of phenocyclidine piperidine (PCP). Vitamin B12 is used to manage the neurologic symptoms that might accompany a nitrate overdose.

Answer to Question 2

D
All nurses develop plans of care for their patients. These plans prescribe interventions to achieve expected outcomes.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
