Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

B
A cough occurs in 5 to 10 of patients taking ACE inhibitors, and it does not subside until the medication is discontinued; this statement indicates a need for further teaching.
An unusual taste in the mouth may occur in patients taking enalapril; no further teaching is needed.
The patient should monitor the blood pressure; no further teaching is needed.
The patient should limit use of ibuprofen, because it may reduce the antihypertensive effects of ACE inhibitors; no further teaching is indicated.
