Question 1 of 5

A nurse accidently 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, whereas metoprolol is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure. The nurse should check the client's glucose level to monitor for potential hypoglycemia due to the administration of metformin. Checking HDL level (
A), uric acid level (
B), and thyroid function levels (
D) are not relevant in this situation as the error was related to administering the wrong medication. These tests would not provide immediate information on the client's condition post the administration error.
