A nurse is reinforcing teaching a client who is scheduled for a barium swallow to evaluate dysphagia. Which of the following statements Indicate to the nurse that the client understands the instructions?

A. "I will expect a warm feeling when the dye is injected."

A. Headache: Omeprazole is not primarily used to treat headaches. While it might indirectly alleviate headaches caused by acid reflux or heartburn, its primary purpose is to reduce stomach acid production.

B. Diarrhea: Omeprazole is not typically used to treat diarrhea. Diarrhea can have various causes, including infections or dietary issues, and treatment would depend on the underlying cause.

C. Nausea: While omeprazole may indirectly help with nausea caused by excessive stomach acid, its main role is to reduce acid production. If nausea is due to other causes, such as medications or infections, different treatments might be necessary.

D. Acid indigestion: This is the correct answer. Omeprazole is very effective at relieving symptoms of acid indigestion, heartburn, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It works by reducing the production of stomach acid, thereby alleviating discomfort associated with excess acid.
