Question 5 of 5
A client is taking oral Oxycodone and Ibuprofen. The nurse should identify that an interaction between these two medications will cause which of the following findings?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The interaction between oxycodone and ibuprofen results in an increase in the expected therapeutic effect of both medications.

When taken together, they can enhance the pain-relieving effects of each other, providing better pain relief for the client.
