Answer to Question 1

Ans: B

If the patient complains of visual disturbances, the drug therapy is discontinued and the primary health care provider notified. An examination by an ophthalmologist is usually indicated. Abdominal pain and ascites are adverse reactions that may or may not require discontinuation of the drug. Auditory disturbances are not associated with this drug.

Ans: B, D, E
Feedback:
A nurse might administer clomiphene (Clomid), cetrorelix (Cetrotide), or gonadotropin (Menopur) to a female client with fertility problems to help increase her chances of becoming pregnant.
