Question 1 of 5

The client asks the nurse why the Transdermal Nitroglycerin patch needs to be off for 12 hours per day. What is the best response by the nurse?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because leaving the Transdermal Nitroglycerin patch off for 12 hours per day helps to prevent the development of tolerance.
Tolerance can occur when the body gets used to a medication over time, requiring higher doses for the same effect. By having a patch-free period each day, the body has a chance to reset and maintain the effectiveness of the medication.
Choice B is incorrect as it disregards the need for a patch-free period.
Choice C suggests a different dosing schedule that is not evidence-based.
Choice D is too short of a time period for the patch to be off to have any beneficial effect.
