Question

A nurse is giving medication instruction to a client who is taking metoprolol (Lopressor). Which statement by the client would indicate that teaching has been effective?

Answer 1

Lopressor may be defined as the drug used for the treatment of the hypertension and angina. The death of the risk can be minimized if the individual has heart failure.

This drug acts as the beta blocker that affects the heart circulation. This drug is taken in the case of the serious heart attacks only. The client statement that he shall never stop taking of this drug abruptly indicated the nurse teaching has been effective.
