To determine if a client can receive a medication, the nurse should check the "Contraindications" section.

Adverse effects describe unwanted reactions that may occur, implementation focuses on how to administer the drug, and a boxed warning is a strong safety alert but not specifically for determining if the client can receive the drug.
