The nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a prescription for sertraline for the treatment of depression. Which of the following statements by the client would indicate a correct understanding of the teaching?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
Reporting self-harm thoughts is critical, as sertraline may increase suicide risk initially. Discontinuing abruptly risks relapse, food restrictions apply to MAOIs, and benefits take weeks, not days.
