Question 1 of 5

After taking the medication guaifenesin (Mucinex), the client complains of coughing up phlegm. What is the best response by the nurse?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: This is normal. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that helps loosen and thin mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up.
Therefore, coughing up phlegm after taking guaifenesin is an expected response and a sign that the medication is working as intended.
Choice B is incorrect because there is no need for further investigation as this is an anticipated effect of the medication.
Choice C is incorrect as coughing up phlegm is not typically indicative of an allergic reaction to guaifenesin.
Choice D is incorrect as the presence of phlegm does not necessarily indicate more pathology, but rather the body's natural response to remove mucus.
