It is recommended to include this instruction to promote bowel regularity and prevent discomfort.A. Oxycodone is primarily used for pain relief and does not typically cause an increase in urination frequency. Therefore, this instruction is not appropriate and could confuse the client.B. Oxycodone can be taken with or without food. Taking it with food may help reduce stomach upset.
