Question 1 of 5

The nurse administers the first dose of prazosin 1 mg PO to a client. Which nursing action is most appropriate following the administration of this medication?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Place the call bell in reach of the client. Prazosin is an antihypertensive medication that can cause orthostatic hypotension as a side effect. Placing the call bell within reach ensures the client can easily call for assistance if they experience dizziness or lightheadedness. Encouraging oral fluids (choice
A) is a good practice but not directly related to the administration of prazosin. Recording the client's weight (choice
B) and taking a pulse oximetry reading (choice
C) are also important assessments but not the most immediate action needed after administering prazosin.
