Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is prescribed diphenhydramine to relieve pruritus. The client asks the nurse how he can minimize the daytime sedation he is experiencing. Which of the following responses should the nurse give?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Take the daily dose at bedtime. Diphenhydramine is a sedating antihistamine commonly used for pruritus. Taking it at bedtime can help minimize daytime sedation by allowing the sedative effects to wear off during sleep. This timing aligns with the natural sleep-wake cycle, reducing the impact of drowsiness during the day. The other options are incorrect because: A: Gradually decreasing the dose may not address the issue of daytime sedation. B: Taking the medication with meals does not specifically target the sedative effects. C: Distributing doses evenly may not prevent daytime sedation as the sedative effects can still be present.
