Question 2 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for sumatriptan. Which of the following statements should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Sumatriptan causes chest tightness (vasoconstriction). It's PRN for migraines, not daily, and relief takes 30–60 min.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who has a new prescription for enoxaparin. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Enoxaparin risks thrombocytopenia; platelet monitoring is key. It's SQ, not massaged, and glucose isn't relevant.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for furosemide. Which of the following statements should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Furosemide causes potassium loss (hypokalemia). Morning dosing prevents nocturia, daily weighing monitors fluid, and sodium isn't the focus here.
