A. "Take your medication with a meal to decrease the onset of dizziness." B. "Dizziness is a common adverse effect of the medication and is related to low blood pressure." C. "Dizziness typically indicates an allergic response, so the medication should be stopped immediately." D. "Take your medication first thing in the morning, and it will not cause as much dizziness."

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Taking medication with a meal may help alleviate gastrointestinal side effects but is unlikely to affect dizziness caused by medication.
B. Quetiapine, an antipsychotic medication, commonly causes orthostatic hypotension, which can lead to dizziness. Explaining this to the client helps provide education about the medication's side effects.
C. Dizziness is not typically indicative of an allergic reaction to quetiapine. Advising the client to stop the medication immediately based solely on dizziness is not appropriate.
D. Taking the medication in the morning may or may not affect dizziness, as it depends on the individual's response to the medication. Additionally, orthostatic hypotension can occur at any time of day, not just in the morning.
