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: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Check the client's glucose level. Metformin is a medication used to treat diabetes by lowering blood sugar levels. Since the nurse accidentally administered metformin instead of metoprolol, which is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure, it is crucial to monitor the client's glucose level to assess for potential hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia resulting from the medication error. Checking the uric acid level (
A), HDL level (
B), or thyroid function levels (
D) would not directly address the immediate concern of monitoring the client's glucose level in this situation.
