A 30-year-old woman who is in the first trimester of pregnancy has presented to her primary care provider with a 4-day history o

f a reddened, itchy left eye that is crusted with purulent exudate. The clinician suspects a bacterial, rather than viral, etiology. How will the client's pregnancy affect the potential use of ciprofloxacin to treat her conjunctivitis?
Ciprofloxacin is safe to use in pregnancy and the client may use to same dose and route as a nonpregnant client. The use of ciprofloxacin is contraindicated in pregnancy. It is safe for the client to use topical ciprofloxacin but the oral route is potential teratogenic. The client will require a lower dose and longer course of ciprofloxacin than a nonpregnant, adult client.

Answer:

The correct answer would be B) The use of ciprofloxacin is contraindicated in pregnancy.

Explanation:

Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic used to treat various bacterial infections. Although there are no human studies made on the ingest of Ciprofloxacin during pregnancy, animal reproduction studies have shown that it wouldn't be adequate to prescribe the drug to pregnant women since it's been proven that it could cause an adverse effect in animals, such as premature birth, miscarriage of the animal fetus and joint disease in immature animals. Studies concluded that Ciprofloxacin is not recommended during pregnancy because it's safety hasn't yet been demonstrated.

I hope it helps!

Answer:

1) If a pesticide was used to kill the grasshoppers and the caterpillars, then the frogs should be fine, because the pesticide isn't made to effect them; also, unless their diet was only of grasshoppers and caterpillars, then the frogs would not starve.

2) Two human activities that can impact the ecosystem are, pollution, and deforestation. Pollution, because it can harm animals, but against popular (but unscientific) belief, doesn't cause climate change. Deforestation also harms animals, and also causes for some trees to have to produce more oxygen than before.

 3)Life on earth could not exist on earth without plants and decomposers because there would be no oxygen left on earth for creatures to breathe, and there would be no nutrients to keep the earth alive.

How can poor posture result in back pain?
disa [49]

Answer:

If the person is young, bad posture can result in tight muscles which can cause pain within hours and OVER TIME (like months or YEARS) it could cause your spinal column to hyperextend and cause disk herniations which can be painful. So if you can only pick one answer, I would pick A, Poor posture can result in tight muscles. Think about when you get a sore neck from texting for too long. It's from straining your neck muscles to support the weight of you head in an unnatural (hunched over) position, AKA poor posture. But if you can pick more than one answer than I would go for A and B, because older people develop chronic pain and spinal arthritis (osteoarthritis) from everyday wear and tear on the spine from poor posture.

Explanation: Some tests let you choose more than one answer, I'm giving you the first answer to go for (Answer A) and a second one, (Answer B) if the test is saying "choose all correct answers."

What is alcoholism ?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

Alcoholism is the inability to control drinking due to both a physical and emotional dependence on alcohol.

Symptoms include a strong need or urge to use alcohol. Those with alcohol use disorder may have problems controlling their drinking, continue to use alcohol even when it causes problems, or have withdrawal symptoms when they rapidly decrease or stop drinking.

Treatment involves counseling, such as behavioral therapy, and medications that reduce the desire to drink. Some people need medical detoxification to stop drinking safely. Mutual support groups help people stop drinking, manage relapses and cope with necessary lifestyle changes.
