Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client who is on long term omeprazole therapy. Which of the following findings should indicate to the nurse the medication is effective?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Reduced dyspepsia. Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that reduces stomach acid production, which helps alleviate symptoms of dyspepsia such as heartburn and indigestion. This improvement indicates the medication is effective in treating the underlying condition of gastric acid hypersecretion.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because omeprazole is not indicated for treating headaches, appetite changes, or bowel movements. It is important to focus on the specific therapeutic effects of the medication when assessing its effectiveness.
