Question 1 of 5

The healthcare provider prescribes propylthiouracil (PTU) and Lugol's solution, a strong iodine solution, for a client with hyperthyroidism. How should the nurse schedule the administration of these medications?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Lugol’s solution reduces thyroid hormone production rapidly, preparing the gland for PTU, which inhibits hormone synthesis. Administering iodine one hour before PTU optimizes treatment efficacy. Meal timing, bedtime scheduling, or parenteral dosing are incorrect.
