Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Hypertensive crisis may occur if a client taking a MAOI ingests certain food containing tyramine or drugs that cause BP elevation. Headache is a warning sign of hypertensive crisis. The nurse should assess BP and inquire about other symptoms of hypertensive crisis. 1. Stiffness is not re-lated to MAOI therapy. 2. Elevated temperature is not an initial sign of hypertensive crisis. 4. Constipation is not a sign of hypertensive crisis.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Alpha1 blockade produces orthostatic hypotension, and cholinergic blockade produces constipa-tion. 1. Mild tremors and urinary retention may occur. 3. This may occur with SSRIs. 4. This may occur with antipsychotics.
