A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for phenytoin.The nurse should recognize that which of the following statements by the client indicates a need for further teaching?.

Choice A rationale:The client should indeed notify their provider before taking any other medications, as phenytoin can interact with many other drugs. This statement does not indicate a need for further teaching.Choice B rationale:Regular dental appointments are important as phenytoin can cause gum hyperplasia. This statement does not indicate a need for further teaching.Choice C rationale:This statement indicates a misunderstanding. Phenytoin is used to control seizures, not cure them. The client should not stop taking the medication when their seizures stop.Choice D rationale:Phenytoin can be taken with or without food, but it should be taken consistently in the same manner. This statement does not indicate a need for further teaching.So, the correct answer is C, after analyzing all choices.
