Question 1 of 5

A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has a new prescription for levothyroxine to treat hypothyroidism. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because it indicates the client understands the potential side effect of levothyroxine, which is palpitations or a racing heart. This shows awareness of the need to monitor and report adverse effects to the healthcare provider promptly. Taking the medication with food (
A) actually decreases its absorption. Dosage adjustments (
C) are common in thyroid medication but don't necessarily demonstrate immediate understanding. Stopping the medication once feeling better (
D) is incorrect as levothyroxine is usually a lifelong treatment. Taking medication at night (E) is not crucial for levothyroxine as long as it is taken consistently.
