Question 4 of 5

Which instruction should be given to the client taking alendronate sodium (Fosamax)?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Alendronate sodium is a drug used to treat osteoporosis. The drug causes gastric reflux, so the client should remain upright for 30 minutes after taking it and take it with only water. Taking it before arising or with estrogen is incorrect, and forcing fluids is not necessary.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The best time for a breast self-exam (BSE) is a week after a menstrual cycle, when the breasts are no longer swollen and tender due to hormone elevation.
