Question 1: Albuterol (Proventil)
CORRECT ANSWER: Bronchodilator - control and
prevent reversible airway obstruction for COPD and Asthma
Question 2: t-PA (Alteplase)
CORRECT ANSWER: thrombolytic - lysis of thrombi
in coronary arteries - decrease risk of HF or death - lysis of PE or DVT - lysis of thrombi causing ischemic stroke reducing neurological sequelae

CORRECT ANSWER: Antidysrhythmic agent -
ventricular fibrillation and unstable ventricular tachycardia. Incompatible with heparin, may be given in PO maintenance dose, monitor for respiratory complications.
Question 4: Amlodipine (Norvasc)
CORRECT ANSWER: calcium channel blocker,
antihypertensive - management of HTN and angina - vasodilation, decrease BP - decrease severity and frequency of attacks of Angina
Question 5: Atenolol (Tenormin)
CORRECT ANSWER: beta blocker, antihypertensive -
management of HTN - prevention of MI - management of chest pain - decrease BP & HR
Question 6: Atorvastatin (Lipitor)

CORRECT ANSWER: Adrenergic agonist
(catecholamine) - short-term management of HF - increase cardiac output - increase urine output
