Question 1 of 5

The nurse caring for a patient with a productive cough would anticipate an order for the following medication:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: guaifenesin (Mucinex). Guaifenesin is an expectorant that helps loosen and thin mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up. This is beneficial for a patient with a productive cough as it helps clear the airways and improve breathing.

A: dextromethorphan (Robitussin) is a cough suppressant and would not be appropriate for a productive cough as it inhibits the cough reflex.
B: fluticasone (Flonase) is a nasal corticosteroid used for allergies and nasal congestion, not for cough.
C: pseudoephedrine (Sudafed) is a decongestant that helps relieve nasal congestion, not suitable for a productive cough.
E, F, G are non-existent options.
