Aclient prescribed ramipril earlier in the week states, "now i have a nagging, dry cough." how should the nurse best follow up the client's statement?

The nurse should explain that drugs like ramipril usually cause a cough.

Explanation:

The nurse should explain that ramipril is an antihypertensive agent of the ACEI (angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors) class and may have as a side effect the occurrence of dry and irritating cough. she should advise the patient to explain this case to his cardiologist who should replace it with another antihypertensive drug. The nurse should also report that if the cough persists for weeks after discontinuation of the medication, the patient should seek medical advice to investigate another cause.
