The nurse is conducting an admission assessment on a client. When collecting data related to medications, the nurse asks, "What medications are you currently taking?" After collecting this information, what other questions should the nurse ask? Select all that apply.

a. Asking the patient if they feel they are taking enough, too much, or too little medication may not provide the most useful information for assessing medication safety or appropriateness. It is more important to focus on the types of medications being used and any potential interactions. b. While medication safety is important, asking directly about who prescribed the medications, OTC medications, and supplements is more pertinent in this context to gather complete information about the patient’s medication regimen. c. Knowing who prescribed the medications is important for understanding the source of the medications and ensuring they are appropriate for the patient’s condition. d. Asking about over-the-counter (OTC) medications is essential because OTC drugs can interact with prescribed medications and affect the patient's health. e. Inquiring about herbs, vitamins, and supplements is crucial because these can also interact with prescription medications and affect their efficacy or safety.
