Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to document my decisions in the treatment of a Puerto Rican woman
with comorbid addiction. Throughout three outpatient visits, I will describe decisions about
medications used in her treatment and include factors that might impact the client’s
pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes. I will also consider any ethical aspects of this
case study. These decisions will be supported by at least three separate references from recent
research and high-level evidence.
