Question 1 of 5
A client with irritable bowel syndrome starts a new prescription for dicyclomine, an anticholinergic medication. The client reports the onset of sensitivity to bright sunlight and a dry mouth. How should the nurse respond?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Photosensitivity and dry mouth are common dicyclomine side effects. Providing management instructions (e.g., sunglasses, hard candy) promotes comfort and compliance. Checking administration, stopping the drug, or scheduling an appointment are secondary without severe symptoms.
