Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has a new prescription for insulin glargine. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Give the injection at bedtime. Insulin glargine is a long-acting insulin that provides a consistent level of insulin over 24 hours. Administering it at bedtime helps mimic the body's natural insulin release pattern, reducing the risk of hypoglycemia during the night. Option A is incorrect because insulin glargine should not be vigorously shaken as it may cause bubbles to form, affecting the accuracy of the dose. Option B is incorrect as it is recommended to rotate injection sites to prevent lipodystrophy. Option D is incorrect because insulin glargine should be clear and colorless, not cloudy.
