Title: A client receiving metoprolol (Lopressor), a substrate of the CYP2D6 system, is started on amiodaron Post by: BreakFree on Feb 7, 2015 A client receiving metoprolol (Lopressor), a substrate of the CYP2D6 system, is started on amiodarone (Cordarone), an inhibitor of the CYP2D6 system. What should the nurse plan to do?
1. Monitor for signs of amiodarone toxicity. 2. Administer both drugs on an empty stomach. 3. Monitor for prolonged effects of the Lopressor. 4. Administer the medications at least two hours apart.
