Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has breast cancer and reports pain. 1 hr after administration of prescribed morphine 10 mg IV. Which of the following medications should the nurse expect to administer?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Fentanyl transmucosal. Fentanyl is a potent opioid used for severe pain, and transmucosal administration provides rapid relief. Naloxone (
A) is an opioid antagonist used to reverse opioid overdose, not for pain management. Morphine tablet (
B) is not indicated for immediate relief after IV morphine. Lidocaine patch (
C) is used for localized pain, not post-IV opioid pain control.
Therefore, fentanyl transmucosal (
D) is the most appropriate choice for rapid pain relief in this scenario.
