A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for warfarin. Which of the following over-the-counter medications should the nurse instruct the client to avoid?

Question 3 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who is receiving a continuous IV infusion. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
