    The nurse is providing education to a client who receives a prescription for zolpidem. Which information about the medication should the nurse include?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Storing zolpidem at room temperature is appropriate, but it is not the primary educational point.B. Zolpidem should be taken on an empty stomach to ensure optimal absorption, not with a meal.C. Crushing zolpidem is not recommended as it can alter the drug's release and effectiveness.D. Taking zolpidem before bedtime is correct as it is a sleep aid and should be taken when the client can go to sleep shortly after taking it.
