A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a prescription for nystatin oral suspension. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: A

By swishing the medication in the mouth, the nystatin can come into contact with the affected areas in the oral cavity, ensuring better efficacy. Option B is incorrect because nystatin should be taken on an empty stomach for better absorption. Option C is incorrect as using a straw may not ensure proper coverage of the oral mucosa. Option D is incorrect because drinking water after taking nystatin is not a specific instruction for this medication.
