Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is experiencing alcohol withdrawal. Which of the following medications should the nurse expect to administer?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Lorazepam. Lorazepam is a benzodiazepine that is commonly used to manage symptoms of alcohol withdrawal, such as anxiety, tremors, and seizures. It acts by enhancing the effects of GABA in the brain, which helps to calm the central nervous system. Naloxone (choice
A) is used to reverse opioid overdose, not alcohol withdrawal. Disulfiram (choice
B) is used to deter alcohol consumption by causing unpleasant effects if alcohol is ingested. Acamprosate (choice
D) is used to help maintain abstinence in individuals who have already stopped drinking.
Therefore, the correct choice for managing alcohol withdrawal symptoms is lorazepam.
