A nurse is reviewing a client's laboratory results before administering furosemide 40 mg IV bolus. For which of the following values should the nurse withhold the medication and contact the provider?

Choice A Reason:
Furosemide is not correct. Furosemide is a diuretic used to treat conditions like heart failure and edema by increasing urine output. It is not a contraindication for sildenafil. However, it's essential to monitor blood pressure when these medications are used together, as both can potentially lower blood pressure.
Choice B Reason:
Albuterol is not correct. Albuterol is a bronchodilator commonly used to treat asthma and other respiratory conditions. It doesn't have direct contraindications with sildenafil for erectile dysfunction. Although both medications can cause some cardiovascular effects, they are not typically considered contraindications for each other.
Choice C Reason:
Indomethacin is not correct. Indomethacin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to reduce inflammation and pain. While it can have effects on blood pressure and the cardiovascular system, it is not a direct contraindication for sildenafil specifically for erectile dysfunction.
Choice D Reason:
Nitroglycerin is correct. Nitroglycerin is a contraindication for sildenafil. Both medications can cause a significant drop in blood pressure. When taken together, they can potentiate each other's effects, leading to a severe decrease in blood pressure, which can be dangerous and potentially life-threatening. Therefore, individuals using nitroglycerin or any nitrate medications should not take sildenafil or other medications for erectile dysfunction due to the risk of hypotension (dangerously low blood pressure).

Choice A Reason:
"Limit your sodium intake." Is incorrect. Sodium restriction might be appropriate for some cardiovascular or renal conditions, but it is not specifically related to theophylline use.
Choice B Reason:
"Restrict milk products." is incorrect. Restricting milk products is not a necessary dietary consideration for theophylline. However, consuming high-fat dairy products may delay the absorption of theophylline, potentially affecting its effectiveness.
Choice C Reason:
"Avoid caffeinated beverages." Is correct. Theophylline is a bronchodilator used to treat respiratory conditions like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It belongs to the class of methylxanthine medications and acts similarly to caffeine. Consuming additional caffeine through beverages like coffee, tea, or certain sodas can increase the risk of adverse effects associated with theophylline, such as increased heart rate or nervousness. Hence, avoiding caffeinated beverages is advisable to minimize the risk of exacerbating these effects.
Choice D Reason:
"Take the medication with meals." Taking theophylline with or without meals is typically acceptable, but it's essential to maintain consistency in timing and avoid significant changes in dietary habits that might affect its absorption or metabolism.
