Answer to Question 1

Ans: B, D
Feedback:
When using a transdermal system, the client should apply the system immediately after opening the pouch with the adhesive side down, applying it to the clean, dry skin of the buttocks, trunk, abdomen, upper inner thigh, or upper arm. The system should not be applied to the breasts, waistline, or a site exposed to sunlight. The area should not be oily or irritated. Once the patch is applied, the client should press on it firmly with the palm of the hand for about 10 seconds. The application site is rotated with at least 1-week intervals between applications to a particular site.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
Fesoterodine is an antispasmodic that can cause dry mouth. Sildenafil, dutasteride, and silodosin are not associated with this adverse reaction.
