Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has been prescribed clozapine. Which of the following topics should the nurse prepare to discuss with the client?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: The importance of medication adherence after the resolution of acute psychosis when taking an antipsychotic. Clozapine is a second-generation antipsychotic used for treatment-resistant schizophrenia. It is crucial for the nurse to discuss the importance of continued medication adherence even after acute symptoms improve to prevent relapse. Option A is incorrect because tyramine interactions are more relevant for MAOIs, not clozapine. Option B is incorrect as clozapine does not typically require fluid restriction. Option D is incorrect as routine red blood cell monitoring is essential for detecting clozapine-induced agranulocytosis, but it is not the most important topic to discuss with the client at this time.
