Question 1 of 5

A nurse is discussing adverse reactions to pain medications in older adult clients with a newly licensed nurse. Which of the following findings should the nurse include as risk factors for an adverse drug reaction? (Select all that apply)

Correct Answer: B,D,E

Rationale: The correct answers are B, D, and E. Older adults are at increased risk for adverse drug reactions due to multiple health problems (
B), polypharmacy (
D), and decreased renal function (E). Multiple health problems can lead to drug interactions and increased vulnerability. Polypharmacy increases the likelihood of drug interactions and adverse effects. Decreased renal function can impair drug metabolism and elimination, leading to drug accumulation and toxicity.

Choices A and C are incorrect because a decreased percentage of body fat and increased rate of absorption are not typically considered risk factors for adverse drug reactions in older adults.
