A young client is brought to the college infirmary by a friend. The client is agitated and is screaming, "I can't stop seeing things. Help me, I'm going crazy." The friend reports to the LPN/LVN that the client took some LSD earlier in the day. Which action by the LPN/LVN is best?

In the case of agitation after taking LSD the LPN/LVP can give a Benzodiazepine to the patient.

Explanation:

LSD or  lysergic acid diethylamide is a hallucinogen that causes auditory and visual hallucinations, where users see or hear things that are not real.

After ascertaining that there is no danger of violence on the part of patients to others and to themselves, supportive reassurance (or "talking down") is the basic treatment for patients who have ingested LSD.

However depending on the severity of the case (i.e whether the patient is a long-term user), other cause of action like supportive care, ergotism therapy and consultations can be employed.
