Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client who has multiple sclerosis and a new prescription for dantrolene. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: I need to apply a sunscreen when I go outside. This is correct because dantrolene can increase the risk of photosensitivity, making the skin more sensitive to sunlight. Applying sunscreen helps protect the skin from harmful UV rays and reduces the risk of sunburn or skin damage.


Choice A is incorrect because combining dantrolene with an antihistamine may lead to increased drowsiness and central nervous system depression.


Choice B is incorrect because dantrolene should be taken as prescribed by the healthcare provider, not just when spasms are bad.


Choice C is incorrect because muscle strength improvement may take weeks to months, not just 2 to 3 days after starting dantrolene.

Overall, understanding the need for sunscreen with dantrolene is crucial for the client's skin health and safety.
