Ans: B, C, E
Feedback:
The nurse should teach the client to take sulfasalazine with food or immediately after a meal, to use sunscreen or cover exposed areas to prevent severe sunburn, to increase fluid intake to prevent renal calculi, to finish the entire course of drug even if the symptoms go away, and to keep all follow-up appointments.
