Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has a new diagnosis of benign prostate hypertrophy and a prescription for doxazosin. The client tells the nurse, 'I do not want to take this medication. I would prefer a natural therapy.' Which of the following supplements should the nurse suggest the client discuss with the provider?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Saw palmetto. Saw palmetto is a natural supplement commonly used for prostate health and may help alleviate symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia. It is important for the nurse to suggest this supplement to the client as an alternative to the prescribed medication, as it aligns with the client's preference for natural therapy. Black cohosh (
A) is not typically used for prostate health. Feverfew (
B) is commonly used for migraines. Garlic (
D) is not specifically indicated for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
