The nurse is reviewing discharge instructions with a client going home on linezolid therapy for a vancomycin-resistant enterococcus infection. Which client statement requires further teaching

Respuesta :

The nurse often sometimes do pass the doctors instructions to patients. The client statement that requires further teaching is that "I can restart my paroxetine once I get back home."

Some other instructions that the client must listen to are:

  • Linezolid is known to consist of different MAOI-type properties, using it always with SSRIs often increases the risk of serotonin syndrome.

  • SSRIs can used after 24 hours after linezolid therapy has been stopped.

  • The clients should not eat foods or beverages having tyramine.

Linezolid has monoamine oxidase inhibitor inside of it and as such the consistent use with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) such as paroxetine, fluoxetine, sertraline etc. can increases the risk of serotonin syndrome.
