The physician has ordered dantrolene (Dantrium) for a patient. What is a priority assessment by the nurse prior to administering this medication?
 
  1. Does the patient have gastric ulcer disease?
  2. Does the patient have psoriasis?
  3. Does the patient have gallbladder disease?
  4. Is the patient pregnant or lactating?
