Ans: B
Feedback:
When the proton pump inhibitor is administered with benzodiazepines, there will be a risk for a toxic level of benzodiazepines. When the client is administered sucralfate with the proton pump inhibitor, there will be a decrease in absorption of the proton pump inhibitor. When the client is administered an antacid with opioid analgesics, there will be an increased risk of respiratory depression. There will be an increased risk of bleeding when the client is taking oral anticoagulants with the proton pump inhibitor.
