Question 1 of 5

The client has a new prescription for metoclopramide. The nurse notifies the HCP because the client has a contraindication for metoclopramide use. Which information in the client's medical record most likely prompted the nurse's notification of the HCP?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: A: The use of NG suctioning alone would not prevent metoclopramide use. Metoclopramide can be administered through the NG tube; the tube is then clamped for an hour after administration until absorption occurs. B: Metoclopramide should be used with caution with DM, but it is not contraindicated. C: The client's history of a seizure disorder would contraindicate the use of metoclopramide. Because metoclopramide (Reglan) blocks dopamine receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone of the CNS, it is contraindicated in seizure disorders. D: Metoclopramide is used in the treatment of nausea and vomiting for clients receiving chemotherapy.
