Question 1 of 5

A nurse cares for a client who is experiencing status epilepticus. Which medication would the nurse prepare for administration?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Lorazepam. In status epilepticus, immediate treatment is crucial to stop ongoing seizures. Lorazepam is a fast-acting benzodiazepine that helps terminate seizures quickly. It acts by enhancing the effect of GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, leading to sedation and seizure control. Atenolol (
B) is a beta-blocker used for hypertension, not seizures. Phenytoin (
C) and Levetiracetam (
D) are antiepileptic drugs used for long-term seizure management but are not ideal for acute seizure control like in status epilepticus.
