Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Option B is the best choice because it asks the patient to elaborate on their experience with hypertension medication, which could help identify issues the patient may have had with the medication that led to them stopping it without consulting their healthcare provider. Options A, C, and D are not as effective because they are directive and may not encourage open communication or address the patient's concerns.
