Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, D, F
Ipratropium bromide is administered by aerosol inhalation, has minimal effect on ciliary activity, and may cause tachycardia, urinary retention, or exacerbation of pulmonary symptoms. Ipratropium bromide does not relieve nasal congestion; has minimal effect on mucous secretion, sputum volume, and viscosity; and is used as a bronchodilator for long-term treatment of reversible bronchospasm associated with COPD.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D, F
Acetylcysteine is given to reduce the viscosity of secretions, used to treat acetaminophen toxicity, used to improve airway flow, and is a mucolytic given by inhalation. Acetylcysteine should be refrigerated after opening and has an odor similar to that of rotten eggs.
