A nurse is teaching self-management to a client who has hepatitis B. Which of the following Instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?

A. Take acetaminophen every 4 hr, as needed, for discomfort: Acetaminophen should be avoided in clients with hepatitis B due to its potential for liver toxicity. Non-NSAID pain relievers or other methods should be considered for pain management. B. Rest frequently throughout the day: Clients with hepatitis B should rest frequently to help their liver recover and manage fatigue, which is common with the infection. Rest is crucial to support the body’s healing process. C. You may donate blood 6 months after completing the medication regimen: Clients with hepatitis B should never donate blood due to the risk of transmission of the virus. It is important to prevent the spread of hepatitis B to others. D. Consume a high-protein diet: While protein is essential for overall health, a high-protein diet may put added stress on the liver. Clients with hepatitis B should follow a balanced diet as advised by their healthcare provider.
