A client recently diagnosed with glaucoma is placed on a prostaglandin analogue. Which of the following medications would fall under the medication category prostaglandin analogue?
Correct answer
B
Rationale
The correct answer is B: Bimatoprost. Prostaglandin analogues are a class of medication used to treat glaucoma by reducing intraocular pressure. Bimatoprost is a prostaglandin analogue commonly prescribed for glaucoma. Benadryl (A) is an antihistamine, Clonazepam (C) is a benzodiazepine used for anxiety, and Dicyclomine (D) is an anticholinergic used for gastrointestinal conditions. None of these medications fall under the prostaglandin analogue category.
