A nurse is administering medications to a client who weighs 132 lb. The prescription reads chloramphenicol, 50mg/kg/day in 4 divided doses. Available is chloramphenicol 100 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse give with each dose? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

A. The correct order is

1. wipe off tops of insulin vials with alcohol sponge.
2. draw back amount of air into the syringe that equals total dose.
3. inject air equal to NPH dose into NPH vial. ...
4. air equal to regular dose into regular vial.
5. invert regular insulin bottle and withdraw regular insulin dose.
6. without adding more air into NPH vial, carefully withdraw NPH dose

B. Withdraw the regular insulin from the vial: This step should occur after injecting air into the regular insulin vial. The nurse should draw up the regular insulin before drawing up the NPH
insulin.

C. Inject air into the regular insulin vial: Inject air into the regular insulin vial is not thecorrect first step to avoid contamination of the clear insulin with cloudy insulin..
D. Withdraw the NPH insulin from the vial: This step should occur after withdrawing the regular insulin. The nurse should draw up the NPH insulin after drawing up the regular insulin to ensure the correct sequence and dosage.

A. "This medication can cause an increase in appetite." is correct. Amitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) that commonly causes increased appetite and weight gain as side effects. Clients should be informed of this possibility and encouraged to monitor their diet and weight while taking the medication.

B. "You might experience hair loss while taking this medication." is incorrect. Hair loss is not a common adverse effect of amitriptyline. This side effect is more commonly associated with other medications, such as chemotherapy agents or certain anticonvulsants.

C. "This medication can cause diarrhea." is incorrect. Amitriptyline typically causes constipation rather than diarrhea due to its anticholinergic effects, which slow gastrointestinal motility. Clients should be advised to increase fiber and fluid intake to help manage constipation.

D.While trouble urinating can occur due to anticholinergic effects, urinary frequency is not a commonly reported adverse effect of amitriptyline.
