The nurse is caring for a client who is receiving prescribed dicyclomine. Which of the following client findings would indicate a therapeutic response?
Correct answer
A
Rationale
Dicyclomine, an anticholinergic, reduces intestinal spasms, so decreased abdominal cramping indicates a therapeutic response. It is not primarily for nausea, urinary retention, or dysuria.
