Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer 0800 medications to a client. The medication administration record (MAR) states 'phenobarbital' and the medication the pharmacy supplied is pentobarbital. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Check the prescription in the client's medical record. This is the appropriate action for the nurse to take because it ensures that the medication being administered matches the prescription ordered by the healthcare provider. By verifying the prescription in the client's medical record, the nurse can confirm if pentobarbital is indeed the correct medication prescribed for the client. Checking the MAR alone may not provide the necessary information about the prescribed medication. Asking the client about previous medications or allergies (choices A, B,
C) may not be reliable sources of information regarding the specific prescription.
Therefore, option D is the most appropriate and logical course of action in this situation.
