Inhibits mu receptors.

Increases the risk for a myocardial infarction.

Inhibits COX 1 and COX-2

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is D

A.   Ibuprofen does not inhibit mu receptors. Mu receptors are associated with opioid actions, while ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).
B.   While long-term use of ibuprofen may increase the risk of cardiovascular events like myocardial infarction, this is not the primary action of the drug.
C.   Ibuprofen does not decrease the risk of stroke. In fact, chronic use of NSAIDs may actually increase the risk of bleeding and stroke.
D.   Ibuprofen inhibits both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, which are involved in the inflammatory process. This inhibition helps reduce pain, inflammation, and fever.

Correct Answer is B

A. Urinary symptoms such as urgency and frequency are not related to the therapeutic effects of cyclobenzaprine.
B. Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant, and its effectiveness is indicated by a reduction in muscle rigidity and spasms, along with improved range of motion.
C. Physical dependence is not a goal of treatment with cyclobenzaprine. The effectiveness of the medication should be measured by symptom relief, not dependence.
D. Cyclobenzaprine does not affect respiratory function, so the absence of spontaneous respiratory movements in mechanically ventilated clients is unrelated to the medication's action.
