A nurse is teaching a female client who has an anxiety disorder and is prescribed alprazolam (Xanax). Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?

Choice A Reason:Doubling the next dose if one is missed can lead to an overdose and is not recommended. It's important to take the medication exactly as prescribed and consult with a healthcare provider if a dose is missed.Choice B Reason:Alprazolam can cause orthostatic hypotension, which is a drop in blood pressure that occurs when standing up from a sitting or lying position, leading to dizziness. Patients should be advised to rise slowly to prevent this side effect.Choice C Reason:While it's important to discuss contraception when prescribing medications that can be harmful during pregnancy, alprazolam does not specifically affect contraceptive methods. However, it is classified as a pregnancy category D drug, meaning there is evidence of risk to the fetus, so effective contraception is important if there's a chance of pregnancy.Choice D Reason:Patients should avoid alcohol while taking alprazolam because it can increase the sedative effects of the medication and lead to dangerous side effects, such as respiratory depression.
