Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client who has a new prescription for metformin extended release tablets. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: "I will avoid crushing this medication." Metformin extended-release tablets should not be crushed, as it can alter the drug's release mechanism and potentially lead to an overdose. Crushing the medication can cause too much of the drug to be released at once, leading to adverse effects. Taking the medication in the morning (choice
A) or on an empty stomach (choice
B) are not necessarily incorrect but do not specifically demonstrate understanding of the teaching about avoiding crushing the tablets. Expecting to gain weight (choice
D) is unrelated to the administration of metformin.
