A history of addiction or addictive behaviors should prompt a nurse to discourage a patient from self-medicating. A history of addiction indicates that the client might be more inclined to abuse even otc painkillers, so a word of discouragement is appropriate in this situation. A nurse should thoroughly investigate a client's history to ensure that no history of addiction or addictive behaviors is present.
