Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a patient who has a new prescription for atorvastatin. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include? What instructions should the nurse include for atorvastatin?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Report muscle pain or weakness. This is crucial because atorvastatin, a statin medication, can cause muscle-related side effects like myopathy or rhabdomyolysis. By instructing the patient to report muscle pain or weakness, the nurse can monitor for these serious adverse effects and take appropriate actions if needed.
A: Taking the medication in the morning is not specific to atorvastatin and can be taken at any time.
C: Avoiding foods high in vitamin K is not relevant to atorvastatin, as it does not interact with vitamin K.
D: Taking the medication with grapefruit juice is not recommended with atorvastatin as grapefruit juice can interact with certain medications, but not specifically with atorvastatin.
