Question 1 of 5

After taking orlistat for one week, a female client tells the home health nurse that she is experiencing increasingly frequent oily stools and flatus. Which action should the nurse take? Which action should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Oily stools and flatus are expected side effects of orlistat, which inhibits fat absorption. Asking about recent dietary intake assesses compliance with a low-fat diet, which can reduce these side effects. Increasing fats worsens symptoms, and stopping the drug or testing stool is unnecessary without severe symptoms.
