Simulated
The nurse is administering the muscle relaxant baclofen by mouth (PO) to a client diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Which intervention should the nurse implement?
Correct answer
A
Rationale
Baclofen causes dizziness and weakness, increasing fall risk. Advising slow, cautious movement prevents injuries. Intake/output, stopping antispasmodics, or frequent strength checks are less relevant.
