A 70-year-old female patient has just been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Which of the following drug is used for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease?

A. Acetaminophen

Acetaminophen is a non-opioid analgesic that can be used for mild to moderate pain relief. It is suitable for managing pain associated with abrasions.

B. Aspirin

Aspirin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. While it can be used for pain relief, it may increase the risk of bleeding, and its use is generally avoided in acute injuries with bleeding.

C. Hydrocodone

Hydrocodone is an opioid analgesic and is typically reserved for moderate to severe pain. It may not be the first choice for managing pain associated with abrasions unless the pain is more intense.

D. Ibuprofen

Ibuprofen is a NSAID that provides analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. It is suitable for managing pain and inflammation associated with abrasions.

E. Morphine

Morphine is a strong opioid analgesic and is generally reserved for severe pain, such as post-surgical pain or pain associated with more significant injuries. It may be excessive for managing pain from abrasions.

A. Avoiding hot, spicy foods

Spicy foods can increase the production of stomach acid and may irritate the esophagus, worsening GERD symptoms. Avoiding hot and spicy foods is a dietary measure to minimize the risk of symptom exacerbation.

B. Avoiding tobacco products

Tobacco use is a known risk factor for GERD. Smoking can relax the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), allowing stomach acid to flow back into the esophagus. Advising the patient to quit or avoid tobacco products can contribute to symptom management.

C. Drinking a glass of red wine with dinner

While red wine may have some potential benefits, alcohol, in general, can relax the LES, leading to increased reflux. Therefore, drinking red wine with dinner may not be recommended for someone experiencing GERD symptoms.

D. Eating a snack before bedtime

Eating close to bedtime can increase the likelihood of GERD symptoms, as lying down may allow stomach acid to flow back into the esophagus. The nurse may advise against eating a snack right before bedtime to minimize nighttime reflux.

E. Using a small pillow for sleeping

Elevating the head and upper body during sleep can help prevent stomach acid from flowing into the esophagus. Using a small pillow for sleeping is a measure to reduce nighttime reflux and alleviate GERD symptoms.
