Benzodiazepine-instruct - CORRECT ANSWER -Aalprazolam (xanax) is
contraindicated in acute angle-closure glaucoma or untreated open-angle

importantly that the client is observed closely for recurrence of narcotic
actions until the effects of hydrocodone have been eliminated. Other
actions are not the priority action at this time.
