Question 1 of 5
A nurse in an outpatient clinic is teaching a client who has a new prescription for oxycodone. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: You should take a stool softener while taking this medication. Oxycodone is an opioid analgesic that can cause constipation as a common side effect. Taking a stool softener can help prevent constipation.
Choice B is incorrect because oxycodone is not known to cause increased urination.
Choice C is incorrect as there is no specific need to minimize sunlight exposure with oxycodone.
Choice D is incorrect as oxycodone can be taken with or without food, so there is no requirement to take it on an empty stomach.
