Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client who has tuberculosis and is to start medication therapy with isoniazid, rifampin and pyrazinamide. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Provide a sputum specimen every 2 weeks to the clinic for testing. This is crucial for monitoring the effectiveness of the tuberculosis treatment regimen. Sputum testing helps determine if the medication is working and if the client is responding to treatment. Regular monitoring also helps in identifying any drug-resistant strains early on.


Choice A is incorrect as isoniazid should not be taken with an antacid as it can decrease the absorption of the medication.
Choice B is incorrect as pyrazinamide should be taken with a full glass of water but the specific amount is not specified.
Choice C is incorrect as sputum cultures may remain positive even after 6 months of therapy, and negative cultures do not always correlate with treatment success.
