Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client with a new prescription for gemfibrozil. Which of the following is an indication of this medication?

Choice B is incorrect because it states the opposite effect of what gemfibrozil does.

Choices C and D are incorrect because gemfibrozil is not used for hypertension or DVT treatment.
