The nurse is discharging a 72-year-old man who was hospitalized after a muscle strain injury to his back. One of the discharge prescriptions for this patient is cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) 10 mg three times per day with food.
 
  The prescription is written for 90 tablets and there are three refills available. Which information from this situation would alert the nurse for the need to collaborate with the patient's health care provider?
  1. The dosage amount is too low for the type of injury this patient sustained.
  2. Cyclobenzaprine should be used with great caution in those over 65.
  3. If taken as directed, the patient would be able to take the medication for 120 days.
  4. Cyclobenzaprine is not effective for back pain.
  5. Cyclobenzaprine should not be taken with food.
