Which of the following medications is the most appropriate choice of therapy for this patient?

ABethanechol

BOxybutynin

CPhenylephrine

DFinasteride

EImipramine

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: E

Cefazolin or an antistaphylococcal penicillin (oxacillin or nafcillin) is recommended for this patient because the C&S results indicate MSSA. Since the patient develops a rash to penicillins, it would be acceptable to use cefazolin in this case.

Oh man, this is a real bladder-buster! I'm gonna have to go with D) Finasteride. It's got that 'fin' in the name, so it must be the right choice, right? *wink wink*

This is a tough one, but I think the answer is E) Imipramine. It's a tricyclic antidepressant that can also help with urinary retention. Gotta love those multi-purpose drugs!

I would go with B) Oxybutynin. It's an anticholinergic medication that can help relax the bladder muscles.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'm leaning towards B) Oxybutynin since it's commonly used to treat urinary retention, but I'm not 100% sure.
