A client has been prescribed a tricyclic antidepressant and the nurse recognizes the client's associated risk for anticholinergic effects. What should the nurse teach the client about preventing and managing these adverse effects? (Select all that apply.)

A. A return to normal respiratory rate, rhythm, and depth is correct because opioid antagonists, such as naloxone, are primarily used to reverse the respiratory depression caused by opioid overdose.

B. Management of alcohol withdrawal symptoms is incorrect; opioid antagonists do not address alcohol withdrawal.

C. A reduction in the client's rating of their pain is incorrect; opioid antagonists counteract the effects of opioids, which can result in increased pain levels rather than reduction.

D. Alertness and improve memory function is incorrect; while opioid antagonists may improve alertness by reversing sedation, the primary goal focuses on restoring respiratory function.

A. Sitting up comfortably in bed is not ideal for nasal spray administration; the client should be in an upright position, possibly sitting on the edge of a chair.

B. Tilting the head slightly to the side is correct; this position helps the medication to be delivered effectively to the nasal passages.

C. Inserting the tip of the nose piece into one nostril is correct; this ensures that the medication is delivered directly into the nasal cavity.

D. Holding the breath for a few seconds after administering the spray is correct; this allows for better absorption of the medication in the nasal mucosa.

E. Blowing the nose 1 minute after administering the spray is incorrect; the client should avoid blowing their nose for at least a few minutes after administration to allow the medication to be absorbed effectively.
