Question 1 of 5
The nurse is planning to administer sucralfate to a client with peptic ulcer disease. Which action should the nurse include in this patient's plan of care?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Sucralfate forms a protective barrier over ulcers and is most effective when taken on an empty stomach, 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals, to adhere to the ulcer site. Once-daily dosing is incorrect, as it’s typically given four times daily. Sucralfate doesn’t cause significant electrolyte imbalances or Candida infections.
