A nurse is caring for a client who is taking warfarin and reports taking several new herbal supplements. The nurse should identify that which of the following supplements is contraindicated for concurrent use with warfarin?

A) Notify the nurse manager about the incident: While it's important to report medication errors,’the immediate concern should be the client's well-being. Notifying the nurse manage’ can be done after addressing the client's condition.

B) Prepare and file an inc’dent report: Filing an incident report is necessary to document the error, but it should not be the first action taken. Ensuring the client's safety and well-being is the priority.’
C) Notify the provider of the medication administration: While it's important for the provider to be infor’ed of medication errors, the immediate concern should be assessing the client's response to the medication.

D) Examin’ the client's vital signs and condition: This is the’correct answer. The nurse's first action should be to assess the client's vital signs and condition to determine’any adverse effects of the medication. Digoxin is a medication used to treat heart conditions, but it can cause harm if administered when the heart rate is already low. Monitoring the client closely for signs of bradycardia or other adverse effects is essential.

A) Respirations deep at a rate of 10/min: This finding indicates respiratory depression, which is a significant concern with morphine administration. Respiratory depression can lead to hypoxia and respiratory arrest, posing a life-threatening situation for the client. Therefore, it is the priority finding that requires immediate intervention, such as reducing the dose of morphine, administering naloxone (an opioid antagonist), or providing respiratory support.

B) Urinary output of 20 mL within 1 hr: While decreased urinary output may indicate potential renal impairment or dehydration, it is not as immediately life-threatening as respiratory depression. However, it should still be monitored and addressed appropriately.

C) Vomiting 30 mL of fluid: Vomiting can be a side effect of morphine but may not require immediate intervention unless it leads to aspiration or dehydration. Nonetheless, it should be closely monitored for complications.

D) Blood pressure 90/60 mm Hg: Hypotension can occur as a side effect of morphine due to its vasodilatory effects. While low blood pressure should be addressed, it is not as immediately life-threatening as respiratory depression. Monitoring and appropriate interventions, such as fluid administration or adjusting the dose of morphine, can be implemented to manage hypotension.
