Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has a new prescription for lorazepam for anxiety. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Avoid driving while taking the medication. This is important because lorazepam is a benzodiazepine that can cause drowsiness and impair cognitive function. Driving while on this medication can be dangerous.
Choice B is incorrect as lorazepam should be taken with food or milk to minimize gastrointestinal upset, not specifically a high-protein meal.
Choice C is incorrect as lorazepam is a sedative and can cause drowsiness, not energize.
Choice D is incorrect as abruptly stopping lorazepam can lead to withdrawal symptoms and should be tapered off under medical supervision.
