Question 1 of 5
The nurse is teaching a client with hypertension about the prescribed bumetanide, a loop diuretic, 1 mg PO daily. Which statement, made by the client would indicate that the teaching has been effective?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: "I will take my pill each day with my breakfast." This indicates effective teaching because loop diuretics like bumetanide are best taken in the morning to prevent excessive urination during the night. Taking it with breakfast ensures consistent timing and absorption.
A: Drinking milk for calcium is unrelated to bumetanide therapy.
B: Taking the pill after dinner may result in increased nighttime urination.
D: Limiting citrus juice intake is not directly related to bumetanide therapy.
Therefore, only choice C directly relates to the proper administration of bumetanide.
