Title: A client is prescribed an additional once-daily antidysrhythmic drug to control persistent atrial fi
Post by: BreakFree on Feb 8, 2015
A client is prescribed an additional once-daily antidysrhythmic drug to control persistent atrial fibrillation. Which instructions should the nurse provide for this client?


1. “Take your first dose of this new medication before you go to bed tonight.”
2. “Do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours after taking the new medication.”
3. “Before you get out of bed in the morning, sit up on the side of the bed for a few minutes.”
4. “Plan to return to the clinic to have your electrolytes checked in 2 weeks.”
5. “Contact the clinic if you notice any loss of hair from your head.”
