Question 1 of 5

A nurse is instructing a client who is newly diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) about the use of antitubercular medications. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: A typical course of treatment involves 6 to 12 months of consistent medication use. This is because treating pulmonary TB requires a prolonged course of antibiotics to fully eradicate the bacteria. The rationale is that TB bacteria grow slowly, so a longer duration of treatment is needed to ensure all bacteria are killed.
Choice A is incorrect because TB treatment usually lasts for a specific duration, not lifelong.
Choice B is incorrect as family members are not routinely treated unless they have active TB.
Choice D is incorrect as treatment duration is not based on Mantoux test results.
