A nurse is providing teaching to a patient newly diagnosed with partial seizures who will begin taking oxcarbazepine [Trileptal]. The patient also takes furosemide [Lasix] and digoxin [Lanoxin]. Which statement by the patient indicates understanding of the teaching?

Respuesta :

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Based on the information provided it can be said that the statement that would indicate understanding of the teachings would be "I should report any nausea, drowsiness, and headache to my provider." This is because Oxcarbazepine has been known to cause hyponatremia in about 3% if patients and some of the symptoms of hyponatremia include nausea, drowsiness, confusion, and headache. These symptoms need to be reported as soon as they begin to appear.
