Question 1 of 5
A nurse at a family practice clinic receives a call from a client who is prescribed oral contraceptives but forgot to take one dose. The client reports she is in the first week of a 28-day cycle pack. Which of the following instructions should the nurse provide?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Take the missed dose now, then continue the medication as ordered. In the first week of a 28-day cycle pack, missing one pill does not significantly impact contraceptive efficacy. Taking the missed dose as soon as possible and then continuing the medication as prescribed maintains the contraceptive effectiveness.
Choice A is incorrect as stopping the pills abruptly can lead to unintended pregnancy.
Choice B is unnecessary as missing one pill does not automatically indicate pregnancy.
Choice C is not relevant in this context as the client can still take the missed dose and continue with the contraceptive method.
