Question 1 of 5

The client with Addison's disease is taking fludrocortisone 100 mcg orally once daily. Which statement made by the client regarding the fludrocortisone therapy requires further teaching by the nurse?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A: The client should check with the HCP about getting vaccinations such as influenza; a chronic condition increases the client's risk for other illnesses and complications. B: The client needs further teaching if stating that he or she will stop taking fludrocortisone (Florinef) if his or her blood sugar levels are too high; stopping mineralocorticoid replacement therapy abruptly may lead to addisonian crisis. C: Common adverse effects of fludrocortisone include edema, arrhythmias, and hypertension; stating that he or she should monitor weight, BP, and pulse daily is appropriate. D: Common adverse effects of fludrocortisone include hypokalemia; stating that he or she should consume potassium-rich foods is appropriate.
