Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer propranolol to several clients. For which of the following clients should the nurse clarify the prescription with the provider before administration?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: A client who has a history of asthma. Propranolol is a non-selective beta-blocker that can potentially exacerbate bronchospasm in patients with asthma due to its mechanism of action.
Therefore, the nurse should clarify the prescription with the provider before administering it to a client with asthma to avoid potential adverse effects.
Choices B, C, and D are not contraindications for propranolol use, so there is no need to clarify the prescription for clients with hypertension, migraines, or stable angina.
