Question 1 of 5
A nurse is administering the first dose of ramipril to a client who has hypertension. The client reports feeling dizzy and lightheaded. Which of the following should the nurse administer?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: IV fluid bolus. Dizziness and lightheadedness after administering ramipril could indicate hypotension, a known side effect. IV fluid bolus helps to increase blood volume, improving blood pressure. Naloxone is for opioid overdose, not related to ramipril. Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine, not indicated for hypotension. 15g of carbohydrates is used for hypoglycemia, not hypotension.
