After receiving ibuprofen (Motrin) 800 mg orally for right hip pain, the patient states that his pain is 8 out of 10 on the numerical pain scale. Which action should the nurse take?
 
  1) Use nonpharmacological therapy while waiting 3 more hours before next dose.
  2) Administer an additional 800 mg oral dose of ibuprofen right away.
  3) Do nothing because the patient's facial expression indicates he is comfortable.
  4) Notify the prescriber that the current pain management plan is ineffective.
