Creation of drugs. She is a medical chemist after all so she'd need to have the necessary knowledge to make medicine which can later be sold in a pharmacy
Question: A nurse has provided education for a patient newly diagnosed with hypertension who is just beginning therapy with anti hypertensive medications. Which statement by the patient indicates a need for further teaching?
a. “I may experience serious long-term problems even if I am not having symptoms.”
b. “I should report side effects to the provider since other drugs may be substituted.”
c. “I will need to take medications on a long-term basis.”
d. “When my symptoms subside, I may discontinue the medications.”
Answer:
The statement “When my symptoms subside, I may discontinue the medications.” by the patient indicates a need for further teaching
Explanation:
Patients should be taught that hypertension treatment is lifelong and that medications must be continued even when symptoms subside. Long-term problems may still occur without symptoms. Reporting drug side effects is necessary so that other drugs may be tried if needed. Abrupt discontinuation of high doses of centrally acting drugs such as alpha-methyldopa, clonidine, and guanabenz can produce a syndrome of sympathetic over activity that includes agitation, headache, sweating, and nausea and less commonly can provoke rapid upswings in blood pressure.
Answer:
Sutton and Boveri published independent papers proposing what we now call the chromosome theory of inheritance.
The hydrophilic molecules are those molecules, which tend to get mixed in water, they are water loving. These molecules are generally polar.
The water molecules are polar and tend to dissolve the polar solutes in it. When a polar molecule gets in contact with the water, it is attracted and gets mixed into it. Non polar molecules are hydrophobic and do not get mixed into water.
So, the correct answer is mixed.
