Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client who has multiple sclerosis about a new prescription for baclofen. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Do not take antihistamines with this medication. Baclofen is a muscle relaxant commonly used to treat muscle spasms in conditions like multiple sclerosis. Antihistamines can potentiate the sedative effects of baclofen, leading to increased drowsiness and dizziness. It is important to avoid combining these medications to prevent excessive sedation and potential falls or accidents.

Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because diarrhea is not a common side effect of baclofen, headaches do not require immediate cessation of the medication, and taking baclofen with or without food does not significantly affect its efficacy.
