A client diagnosed with depression begins selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant therapy. What information should the nurse provide to the client?

Choice A reason: SSRIs do not typically require sun exposure restrictions. This applies more to medications like tricyclics or MAOIs with photosensitivity risks. Choice B reason: Sodium restriction is not relevant to SSRIs. It may be important in lithium therapy due to its renal excretion and sodium balance. Choice C reason: Tyramine-free diets are essential for MAOIs, not SSRIs. SSRIs do not interact with tyramine in the same way. Choice D reason: SSRIs may increase suicidal ideation, especially in the early stages of treatment. Clients must be educated to report these symptoms immediately.
