Question 1 of 5

A client with a urinary tract infection is experiencing intense burning and pain. The nurse reviews the client's electronic medical record after the client is prescribed phenazopyridine. What finding would contraindicate the safe and effective use of this medication?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: History of renal impairment. Phenazopyridine is excreted by the kidneys, and in clients with renal impairment, it can accumulate in the body leading to potential toxicity. This can worsen the existing renal condition and cause further harm. Fever and chills (choice
A) are common symptoms of a urinary tract infection and do not contraindicate the use of phenazopyridine. Burning and pain with urination (choice
B) is an indication for phenazopyridine use. Bright orange urine (choice
C) is an expected side effect of phenazopyridine and does not contraindicate its use.
Therefore, a history of renal impairment is the most significant factor to consider when determining the safe and effective use of phenazopyridine in a client with a urinary tract infection.
