A nurse is interviewing a client who was newly admitted prior to administering medications. The client tells the nurse, "I forgot to tell the doctor I take albuterol for asthma." For which of the following medications should the nurse withhold the dose and notify the provider?

A Isosorbide mononitrate is a nitrate used to prevent angina (chest pain) in people with heart conditions. There are no significant interactions documented between albuterol and isosorbide mononitrate. Therefore, the nurse would not need to withhold this medication based solely on the client's use of albuterol.B. Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to reduce stomach acid production. There are no significant interactions between albuterol and pantoprazole. The nurse can administer pantoprazole as prescribed without concerns related to the client's asthma medication.C. Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist used to manage asthma and seasonal allergies. Both albuterol and montelukast are medications commonly used to treat asthma. There are no contraindications or significant interactions between these medications. The nurse can administer montelukast as prescribed.D. Propranolol is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure, heart rhythm disorders, and other conditions. Albuterol is a beta-2 adrenergic agonist and there is a potential for additive effects when used concomitantly with beta-blockers like propranolol. This combination can result in decreased effectiveness of both medications. Therefore, it is prudent for the nurse to withhold propranolol and notify the provider about the client's use of albuterol.
