A nurse is teaching a client who has a new prescription for an albuterol inhaler. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Choice A reason: Inhaling quickly reduces medication deposition in the lungs. A slow, deep inhalation ensures proper delivery, making this incorrect for effective albuterol inhaler use. Choice B reason: Rinsing the mouth after inhalation removes residue, preventing irritation or thrush, though less common with albuterol. This is a standard instruction, making it the correct choice. Choice C reason: Two puffs every 2 minutes exceeds typical albuterol dosing (1–2 puffs every 4–6 hours). This risks overuse, causing side effects, making it incorrect. Choice D reason: Holding the mouthpiece 6 inches away is incorrect; it should be 1–2 inches or in a spacer. This ensures proper aerosol delivery, making this incorrect.
