Answer to Question 1

2, 3

Rationale 1: Heparin (Hep-Lock) is an anticoagulant.
Rationale 2: Ticlopidine (Ticlid) is an ADP receptor blocker.
Rationale 3: Clopidogrel (Plavix) is an ADP receptor blocker.
Rationale 4: Warfarin (Coumadin) is an anticoagulant.
Rationale 5: Ibuprofen (Advil) is an NSAID.

Global Rationale: Ticlopidine (Ticlid) is an ADP receptor blocker. Clopidogrel (Plavix) is an ADP receptor blocker. Heparin (Hep-Lock) is an anticoagulant. Warfarin (Coumadin) is an anticoagulant. Ibuprofen (Advil) is an NSAID.

Answer to Question 2

2, 3, 4

Rationale 1: Thrombolytics are not subclasses of antiplatelet agents.
Rationale 2: The three primary subclasses of antiplatelet agents are (1) aspirin, (2) adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptor blockers, and (3) glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor blockers.
Rationale 3: The three primary subclasses of antiplatelet agents are (1) aspirin, (2) adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptor blockers, and (3) glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor blockers.
Rationale 4: The three primary subclasses of antiplatelet agents are (1) aspirin, (2) adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptor blockers, and (3) glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor blockers.
Rationale 5:Antipyretic agents are not antiplatelet agents.

Global Rationale: The three primary subclasses of antiplatelet agents are (1) aspirin, (2) adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptor blockers, and (3) glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor blockers. Thrombolytics and antipyretic agents are not antiplatelet agents.
