Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has diabetes mellitus and a new prescription for lispro and Lantus insulins. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Unopened vials of insulin should be kept in the refrigerator. This is correct because insulin should be stored in the refrigerator to maintain its potency and effectiveness. Insulin that is not stored properly can lose its effectiveness.


Choice A is incorrect because insulin injected into the abdomen is actually the most rapidly absorbed due to the larger surface area and increased blood flow in that area.


Choice B is incorrect because shaking the bottle of insulin can cause air bubbles to form, which can affect the accuracy of the dosage.


Choice D is incorrect because not all insulin types can be mixed together in the same syringe. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider before mixing different types of insulin.

In summary, choice C is correct because proper storage of insulin is essential for maintaining its effectiveness, while the other choices are incorrect due to various reasons related to insulin administration and storage.
