A client receives a prescription for methotrexate. Which information provided by the client requires additional instruction by the nurse?
Correct answer
B
Rationale
Methotrexate is teratogenic and contraindicated in pregnancy due to fetal harm risks. Weekly platelet counts monitor bone marrow suppression, folic acid mitigates side effects (though not specifically for liver protection), and room temperature storage is correct.
