A postpartum client has a fourth-degree perineal laceration. The nurse would expect which medication to be prescribed?
Ferrous Sulfate
Methylergonovine
docusate sodium
bromocriptine
Answer explanation
A stool softener such as docusate may promote bowel elimination in a woman with a fourth-degree laceration, who may fear that bowel movements will be painful. Ferrous sulfate would be used to treat anemia. However, it is associated with constipation and would increase the discomfort when the woman has a bowel movement. Methylergonovine would be used to prevent or treat postpartum hemorrhage. Bromocriptine is used to treat hyperprolactinemia.
