A patient comes to your pharmacy to fill a prescription for an antibiotic for a urinary tract infection. When you ask if she has any chronic conditions, she state that she does not. What should you add to the patient's profile under chronic conditions?
  1. Urinary tract infection
  2. No chronic conditions
  3. Bladder infection
  4. Kidney infection
Explanation
Answer: B - No chronic conditions should be listed. When asked, the patient stated that she does not have any chronic conditions, so none should be added to her profile. Since a urinary tract infection is generally an acute condition, this should not be added as a chronic condition unless the patient reports that they have ongoing urinary tract infections.
