Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
The nurse should instruct the client to avoid alcohol during the period of eszopiclone therapy as alcohol interacts with eszopiclone to cause CNS depression. Strenuous work, use of tobacco, and exposure to sunlight are not of concern.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
Flurazepam induces sleep. Adrenergic drugs help to relieve stress. Analgesics are used to ease pain. Circulation can be improved by exercising.
