Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client who has a duodenal ulcer about his new prescription for cimetidine. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Your doctor might need to reduce your theophylline dose while taking this medication. Cimetidine can interact with theophylline, leading to increased theophylline levels in the blood, which can be harmful.
Therefore, the nurse should include this instruction to ensure the client's safety.

Explanation for other choices:
A: Take the medication on an empty stomach for better absorption - This is not necessary for cimetidine; it can be taken with or without food.
B: You should plan to take this medication for at least 6 months - Duration of therapy varies and should be determined by the healthcare provider.
D: Take the medication with an antacid to minimize stomach upset - Cimetidine itself is an antacid, so taking it with another antacid is not recommended.
