Ati Med Surg Proctored Exam
A nurse is obtaining a medication history from a client who is to start therapy with naproxen for rheumatoid arthritis. Which of the following medications places the client at risk for bleeding?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Ibuprofen, like naproxen, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Taking two NSAIDs together increases the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. B. Captopril is an ACE inhibitor and does not directly increase the risk for bleeding when combined with naproxen. C. Phenytoin is an anticonvulsant and does not interact with naproxen to increase bleeding risk. D. Digoxin is a cardiac glycoside and also does not increase bleeding risk with naproxen.
