Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching for a client who has a new prescription for warfarin. Which of the following information should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: The client should use an electric razor while on this medication. This is because warfarin is a blood thinner that can increase the risk of bleeding. Using an electric razor instead of a manual razor can help prevent cuts and reduce the risk of bleeding. Options A, C, and D are incorrect. A client should never double the dose of warfarin if they miss a dose as it can lead to an increased risk of bleeding. Mild nosebleeds are not common during initial treatment with warfarin, and warfarin actually decreases the risk of deep vein thrombosis rather than increasing it.
