Question 1 of 5

A client who has received chemotherapy has a critically low platelet count. The nurse expects which drug or drug class to be used to stimulate platelet cell production?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Oprelvekin. Oprelvekin is a thrombopoietic growth factor that stimulates platelet cell production. It is used to increase platelet count in patients with critically low levels due to chemotherapy. Epoetin alfa (
A) is used to stimulate red blood cell production, not platelets. Filgrastim (
C) is a granulocyte colony-stimulating factor used to stimulate white blood cell production. Interferons (
D) are used for antiviral and antitumor effects, not platelet production.
