A female client with a history of peptic ulcer disease receives a prescription for misoprostol. Which information provided by the client indicates to the nurse a need for further teaching?
Correct answer
A
Rationale
MisoprostolÔÇÖs administration is not tied to menstrual cycles; itÔÇÖs used to prevent NSAID-induced ulcers and requires no specific cycle timing. Contacting providers for conception risks, using contraception, and confirming negative pregnancy tests are critical due to teratogenic risks.
