Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has a new prescription for ipratropium for COPD. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Rinse your mouth after using the inhaler. This instruction is important because ipratropium can cause dry mouth and throat irritation, which may lead to oral thrush. Rinsing the mouth after inhaler use helps prevent these side effects. The other choices are incorrect. B is incorrect because ipratropium provides gradual, not immediate, relief of COPD symptoms. C is incorrect because using the inhaler every 2 hours as needed can lead to overuse and potential side effects. D is incorrect because using a spacer can actually improve medication delivery for inhaled medications.
