Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Nadolol is a beta-blocker that can cause a decreased tolerance to exercise because of the inability to experience the effects of the stress reaction. Dry mouth, constipation, and problems with urination are effects often seen with anticholinergic drugs but not with beta-blockers.

Answer to Question 2

B, C, D
Feedback:
Topical use of corticosteroids should be limited in children because their body surface area is comparatively large and the amount of the drug absorbed in relation to weight is greater than in an adult. When the medication is used in children, it should be applied sparingly and the area should not be occluded with a diaper. The nurse should not make a judgment nor should he or she allow a patient or family member to dictate a treatment just because he or she wants it. More effective treatments for diaper rash than corticosteroids are available.
