Most famous NCLEX Drugs

Warfarin
  • Check INR (goal usually 2–3, valves 2.5–3.5).

  • Teach consistent vitamin K intake; pregnancy X.

  • Antidote: Vitamin K

  • Watch for bleeding.

  • aPTT 1.5–2.5× control (IV heparin).

  • Antidote: Protamine.

  • Monitor platelets → risk of HIT

  • Bleeding precautions.

  • Sit/lie down → risk hypotension/headache.

  • Sublingual: 1 tab q5min × up to 3; call EMS if pain persists.

  • No PDE-5 inhibitors (sildenafil) within 24–48 h.

  • Patches: 10–12 h nitrate-free interval.

  • Morphine/Fentanyl
  • Check RR/LOC; hold if RR <12.

  • Antidote: Naloxone

  • Anticipate constipation → bowel regimen.

  • Loop (furosemide): check K⁺, BP, I&O; risk hypo-K⁺, ototoxicity (if given fast IV).

  • K-sparing (spironolactone): risk hyperkalemia, gynecomastia; avoid K⁺ supplements.

  • Check glucose before giving; food timing matters.

  • Peaks = highest hypoglycemia risk:

    • Lispro/aspart: onset ~15 min, peak 1–3 h.

    • Regular: onset 30–60 min, peak 2–4 h.

    • NPH: peak 4–12 h.

    • Glargine: no peak, don’t mix.

    • Mixing: draw clear (Regular) → cloudy (NPH).  RN
  • The -prils such as lisinopril
  • Monitor K⁺ and creatinine; watch for hyperkalemia.

  • Dry cough, rare angioedema (airway!).

  • Contraindicated in pregnancy.

Warfarin (Coumadin)

1. PT/INR

2. Bleeding

3. Consistent intake of foods with vitamin K

  1. Check Heart rate
  2. Check digoxin level if symptoms of toxicity: GI, Cardiac, & Visual Disturbances.
  3. Check potassium- Low K+ leads to increased risk of toxicity
  1. Monitor potassium level
  2. Monitor blood pressure/dehydration

Monitor for bleeding

  1. Persistent cough is benign
  2. Monitor for Hyperkalemia
  3. Monitor for angioedema (swollen lips)

1. Monitor Respiratory rate

2. Monitor LOC

  1. Check allergies before giving
  2. Monitor for allergic reaction
  1. Monitor kidney function
  2. Monitor for ototoxicity
  1. Monitor Heart rate and blood pressure
ACE Inhibitors

Persistent dry cough.

Muscle pain or rhabdomyolysis.

Hypokalemia.

Increased risk of Bleeding.

Tremors and requires monitoring for toxicity.

Hypoglycemia.
