A client says to the admitting nurse, Why do you need to know the names of all the over-the-counter supplements I take? They aren't drugs. Which of the nurse's responses are appropriate?
 
  1. The admitting physician needs to know everything you are taking.
  2. You're right. I'm not sure why the admitting paperwork asks for this information. Would you mind listing them anyway?
  3. The law requires us to keep a list of over-the-counter drugs and supplements that you are taking.
  4. It is true that supplements are not considered drugs; however, some of these products can cause adverse effects with prescribed drugs.
  5. We need to know if you are having an allergic reaction to one of them.
