Answer to Question 1

A patient who has nausea and visual changes while taking digoxin will most likely be administered digoxin immune fab (Digibind). Acetylsalicylic acid is not administered for digoxin toxicity. Nesiritide is not administered when the patient is experiencing digoxin toxicity. Felbamate is administered for the treatment of seizures.

Clindamycin is administered topically for the treatment of acne. Chloramphenicol, daptomycin, and tigecycline are not administered topically for the treatment of acne.
