Question 1 of 5

A nurse is providing discharge teaching to a client who has pulmonary tuberculosis and a new prescription for rifampin. Which of the following information should the nurse provide?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. Rifampin is known to cause a harmless side effect of discoloration of bodily fluids, turning them orange. This information is crucial for the client to be aware of to prevent unnecessary concern or anxiety. Taking the medication with meals (
A) is not necessary, as rifampin can be taken on an empty stomach. The treatment duration of rifampin for tuberculosis is typically longer than 1 month (
B), usually lasting several months. Rifampin is not typically associated with causing insomnia (
C).
Therefore, the nurse should emphasize the importance of informing the client that their urine and other secretions may turn orange while taking rifampin as this is a common and harmless side effect.
