A client is brought to the emergency department in the midst of acute alcohol withdrawal accompanied by seizure activity. What drug is most likely to meet this client's needs?

A. Rebound hypertension can occur if antihypertensive medications are abruptly stopped, but it is not a direct reason for switching from an ACE inhibitor to an angiotensin II receptor blocker.

B. A persistent cough is a well-known side effect of ACE inhibitors due to the accumulation of bradykinin. If the client experienced this side effect, it would likely prompt the healthcare provider to switch to an angiotensin II receptor blocker, which does not typically cause this issue.

C. A transient ischemic attack (TIA) would require urgent intervention but is not a reason for changing from an ACE inhibitor to an angiotensin II receptor blocker.

D. Non-adherence to ACE inhibitor treatment may lead to ineffective blood pressure control but would not directly justify a switch to a different class of medication.

A. Decreased appetite may occur but is not the most critical concern in this context.

B. The combination of metoclopramide, which can influence serotonin pathways, with certain antidepressants, especially SSRIs, increases the risk of serotonin syndrome, a potentially life-threatening condition.

C. While some antidepressants can influence blood pressure, monitoring for elevated blood pressure is not the primary concern with metoclopramide.

D. There is no evidence to suggest that metoclopramide enhances the effects of antidepressants; the focus should be on potential adverse interactions instead.
