To minimize systemic absorption of topical anesthetics, the anesthetic agent
should be applied to the smallest surface area of intact skin (C). Application to
the mucous membranes poses the greatest risk (A) of systemic absorption
because absorption occurs more readily through mucous membranes than
through the skin. Inflamed areas generally have an increased blood supply,
which increases the risk of systemic absorption, so (B) should be avoided. A
large surface area increases the amount of topical drug that is available for
transdermal absorption, so the smallest area should be covered, not (D).

The healthcare provider prescribes the anticonvulsant carbamazepine
(Tegretol) for a client with a seizure disorder. The nurse should instruct the
client to notify the healthcare provider if which condition occurs?

Experiences a sore throat
