Question

question: 7 of 25 time remaining: 16:34:35 a nurse is teaching a client who is taking prednisone for acute asthma exacerbation. which of the following instructions should the nurse include? - \avoid taking nonsteroidal anti - inflammatory medication.\ -
inse your mouth after taking the medication to prevent a yeast infection.\ - \stop taking the medication if you become nauseous.\ - \change position slowly when standing up.\

Explanation:

• NSAIDs can interact with prednisone to increase gastrointestinal risk, so avoiding them is correct.
• Rinsing the mouth is for inhaled steroids, not oral prednisone.
• Stopping prednisone abruptly can cause adrenal insufficiency, even with nausea.
• Slow position changes address orthostatic hypotension, not a key risk with oral prednisone for asthma.

Answer:

"Avoid taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication."
