Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for prednisone to treat rheumatoid arthritis. Which of the following statements should indicate to the nurse that the client understands the teaching?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: "I will report a sore throat to my provider." This is because prednisone can suppress the immune system, increasing the risk of infections like sore throat. Reporting any signs of infection promptly is crucial.
Choice A is incorrect because prednisone can cause sodium retention, so increasing sodium intake is not recommended.
Choice C is incorrect as prednisone is usually taken with food to minimize stomach irritation.
Choice D is incorrect because weight gain is more common with prednisone due to fluid retention.
