A client tells the nurse they do not understand why their prescribed antibiotic did not kill the bacteria that caused their infection. Which response should the nurse provide the client?
1) Some antibiotics work with your body's ability to help kill the infection.
2) Your healthcare provider will most likely prescribe a different type of antibiotic.
3) Your healthcare provider will want additional blood work to identify type of bacteria.
4) Your infection is not a serious one and over time your body should be able to kill the bacteria.
