Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer daily medications to a client who is undergoing a procedure at 1000 that requires IV contrast dye. Which of the following routine medications to give at 0800 should the nurse withhold?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Metformin. The nurse should withhold metformin before the procedure with IV contrast dye due to the risk of lactic acidosis. IV contrast dye can affect kidney function, leading to an increased risk of lactic acidosis when combined with metformin. Fluticasone (
A), metoprolol (
B), and valproic acid (
D) are not contraindicated before the procedure with IV contrast dye. Fluticasone is an inhaled corticosteroid, metoprolol is a beta-blocker, and valproic acid is an anticonvulsant. These medications are not typically affected by IV contrast dye and can be safely administered.
