A Client Asks the Nurse Why His Dose of an Antihypertensive

A client asks the nurse why his dose of an antihypertensive medication drug is different from his neighbor's, stating "We both take the exact same drug, but I take 60 mg and he only takes 25 mg." The nurse explains:

A) "If your neighbor is a lot younger than you, his dose might be a lot lower."
B) "Individuals often have widely different responses to the same medications and need different doses of the same medication."
C) "If you are taking a generic brand of the medication, you will need a higher dose than you would of a brand name of the same medication."
D) "If your neighbor takes a lot of other medications, he might need to take a lower dose of the medication than you have to take."
