Question 1 of 5

A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has a new prescription for transdermal nitroglycerin patches to treat angina pectoris. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Remove the patch for two to four hours daily. This instruction is important to prevent tolerance from developing to nitroglycerin. By removing the patch for a period each day, the client's body will not become desensitized to the medication, ensuring its effectiveness in treating angina pectoris.

Option B is incorrect because applying a new patch daily without a break may lead to tolerance development. Option C is incorrect as covering the patch with plastic wrap can interfere with drug absorption. Option D is incorrect as replacing the patch as soon as anginal pain begins is not recommended without consulting a healthcare provider.
