Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who overdosed on morphine and has a respiratory rate of 6/min. Which medication should the nurse plan to administer?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Naloxone. Naloxone is a specific opioid antagonist that reverses the effects of morphine overdose by competitively binding to opioid receptors. This helps to restore respiratory function by reversing the respiratory depression caused by the morphine overdose. Protamine (
A) is used to reverse heparin, not morphine. Epinephrine (
B) is not indicated for respiratory depression caused by morphine overdose. Captopril (
C) is an ACE inhibitor used for hypertension, not for opioid overdose.
