Simulated
A client with a history of smoking cigarettes for many years arrives at the clinic and expresses a desire to stop smoking. The client receives a prescription for bupropion to reduce nicotine cravings. Which information should the nurse include in the discharge teaching?
Correct answer
B
Rationale
Bupropion may cause insomnia and weight loss, which clients should anticipate. Tyramine-free diets are relevant for MAOIs, not bupropion, and notifying about side effects is general advice, not specific.
