A prescription is entered for hydroxyzine 25 mg. Which medication is most likely to be selected in error because of a classic look-alike/sound-alike name pair?
a.Hydrocortisone
b.Hydrochlorothiazide
c.Hydralazine
d.Hydrocodone
Giải thích
Hydroxyzine and hydralazine are a well-documented look-alike/sound-alike pair; one is an antihistamine and the other an antihypertensive vasodilator, so a mix-up can cause serious harm. Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid, hydrochlorothiazide a thiazide diuretic, and hydrocodone an opioid, none of which form this classic confusion pair.
