Question 1 of 5

Patients should be advised not to overuse laxatives, because the smooth muscle in the colon can lose its tone. What condition should the nurse warn the client can occur if this happens?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Chronic constipation. Overusing laxatives can lead to the smooth muscle in the colon losing its tone, resulting in a weakened ability to contract effectively. This can cause chronic constipation as the colon struggles to move waste through the digestive system. Chronic diarrhea (choice
A) is unlikely as laxatives typically cause diarrhea, not constipation. Frequent vomiting (choice
C) and chronic nausea (choice
D) are not directly related to laxative overuse and are more likely to be associated with other gastrointestinal issues.
