Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer medications to a group of clients. Which of the following prescriptions should the nurse clarify with the provider before administering?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Warfarin 100 units subcutaneously daily. Warfarin is an anticoagulant medication, and the dose is typically measured in milligrams, not units.
Therefore, the nurse should clarify the prescription with the provider to confirm the correct dosage before administering.
A: Zoledronate is given as a one-time dose, so clarification is not necessary.
B: Penicillin G is given at a specific dose and frequency, so clarification is not necessary.
D: Tetracycline is given at a specific dose and frequency, so clarification is not necessary.
In summary, the nurse should clarify the prescription for Warfarin as it is not commonly measured in units, unlike the other medications listed.
