A client has been prescribed amitriptyline (Elavil) for treatment of depression. The nurse teaches the client to avoid use of over-the-counter sleep aids. What is the nurse's rationale for this advice?
◦ Using these drugs in combination often causes bradycardia.
◦ Use of amitriptyline can change enzymatic action.
◦ Amitriptyline also induces sleep, so additional sleep aids are not needed.
◦ Using these two medications together decreases enzyme production in the pancreas, which results in pancreatitis.
