An adolescent was recently diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). When discussing the medication treatment plan, the nurse practitioner should inform the adolescent that:

short-term use of benzodiazepines should be sufficient to eradicate the symptoms.

the majority of medications prescribed to manage GAD are nonaddictive.

the use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) can produce immediate results.

alcohol consumption should be avoided.
