Question 1 of 5

A nurse accidentally administers the medication metformin instead of metoprolol to a client. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Check the client's glucose level. Metformin is a medication used to treat diabetes, so administering it instead of metoprolol could lead to hypoglycemia. Checking the client's glucose level will help determine if the client is experiencing low blood sugar levels due to the medication error. Monitoring thyroid function (
A), collecting uric acid levels (
B), and obtaining HDL levels (
C) are not relevant in this situation and would not address the immediate concern of potential hypoglycemia.
