Answer to Question 1

This is awesome you took your the time to answer these questions. You have been so helpful.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Feedback:
The nurse should monitor the client for the increased risk of prolonged bleeding. Increased risk of seizures occurs when phenytoin interacts with a plant alkaloid. Increased risk of ototoxicity is observed in clients receiving plant alkaloids with loop diuretics. Increased risk of CNS depression is observed in clients who are receiving antidepressants along with plant alkaloids.
