Post by: S_leve3 on Nov 25, 2014
The nurse is teaching a client who has started taking digoxin (Lanoxin) for left-sided heart failure. The highest priority information to teach is:     

A) Check the pulse each day before taking the medication and do not take the medication if the pulse is under 60 beats per minute without talking to the physician.
B) Foods that should be eaten while taking digoxin.
C) How to manage nausea that can be associated with taking digoxin.
D) Check the pulse each day and write down the beats per minute on a notepad.
