Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has COPD and has been taking long-term high doses of prednisone. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Measure your blood glucose levels periodically. Clients taking long-term high doses of prednisone are at risk for developing steroid-induced diabetes due to the drug's effect on blood glucose levels. Monitoring blood glucose levels will help detect any abnormalities early, allowing for timely intervention.

A: Limiting potassium-containing foods is not directly related to prednisone use in COPD.
B: Withholding prednisone for 48 hours prior to receiving contrast dye can lead to adrenal insufficiency in clients on long-term prednisone therapy.
D: Taking prednisone on an empty stomach is not a specific instruction related to managing COPD or prednisone therapy.
