Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has hypertension and nephropathy due to type 2 diabetes mellitus. The nurse should expect to administer which of the following medications to slow the progression of the nephropathy?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Losartan. Losartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker that is commonly used to slow the progression of nephropathy in clients with hypertension and diabetes. It works by dilating blood vessels and reducing the pressure within the kidneys, thus protecting them from further damage. Sitagliptin (
A) and Glipizide (
B) are antidiabetic medications that help control blood sugar levels but do not directly address nephropathy. Metoprolol (
C) is a beta-blocker used for hypertension but does not specifically target nephropathy like Losartan.
