The client will experience hallucinations and delusions and will hear colors and see sounds. LSD creates a state of euphoria or depression.

Teaching for clients with frequent urinary tract infections to prevent recurrence should include cleaning the perineum front to back; wearing cotton undergarments; voiding more frequently, especially after sexual intercourse; and changing incontinence control products frequently to prevent infection.
