Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is administering 4 mg of hydromorphone to a client by mouth every 4 hr. The medication is provided as hydromorphone 8 mg per tablet. Which of the following actions is appropriate for the nurse to take?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Dispose of the remaining medication while another nurse observes. This is the appropriate action because hydromorphone is a controlled substance, and any remaining portion of the tablet should be properly disposed of to prevent diversion or misuse. Having another nurse observe the disposal ensures accountability and adherence to proper protocols.



Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because storing or returning the remaining medication can lead to potential misuse or unauthorized access. The safest practice is to dispose of the remaining medication properly to eliminate any risk of diversion.
Choice E, F, and G are not applicable as they are not part of the question scenario.
