Answer to Question 1
Ans: B
Feedback:
The nurse should instruct the patient to disinfect the bathtub or shower stall immediately after bathing to avoid spreading the infection. Thrombocytopenia or easy bruising or bleeding is not normal and should be reported immediately. Impaired skin integrity is not associated with albendazole, so there is no need to avoid bathing daily. Instead of oral contraceptives, the nurse should recommend the barrier method during the course of therapy and for 1 month after discontinuing the therapy.
Answer to Question 2
Ans: B
Feedback:
The nurse should instruct the patient to avoid the use of alcohol, in any form, until the course of treatment is completed. The ingestion of alcohol may cause a mild to severe reaction, with symptoms of severe vomiting, headache, nausea, abdominal cramps, flushing, and sweating. Metronidazole should be taken with food or meals, not on an empty stomach. Photosensitivity is not one of the side effects of metronidazole. Phenobarbital should be avoided, as it increases the metabolism of metronidazole.
