ATI RN Pharmacology 2019 Exam 6 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing agency protocol prior to administering epoetin alfa to a client who has chronic kidney disease. Which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Discard the vial of medication if the solution is cloudy. This is because epoetin alfa is a clear solution, and a cloudy solution may indicate contamination or degradation of the medication, which could be harmful to the client. Shaking the vial (choice
A) can cause foaming and should be avoided. Thawing the medication (choice
B) is not necessary as epoetin alfa should be stored in the refrigerator. Diluting with sterile water (choice
C) is not indicated as it may alter the concentration of the medication.
Therefore, the nurse should discard the vial if the solution is cloudy to ensure the client's safety.
