Question 1 of 5
A client is receiving trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. What information should the nurse include in the teaching about this medication?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is an antibiotic used to treat or prevent bacterial infections. One of the key instructions for patients taking this medication is to increase fluid intake to 3 to 4 liters per 24 hours. This is because the medication can crystallize in the urine, which can lead to kidney stones or damage if the patient is not adequately hydrated.
