A nurse is reviewing the medical record of a client who reports his urine is red-orange. The nurse should identify that which of the following medications can cause this adverse effect?

Choice A: This is correct because offering artificial saliva frequently can help moisten the mouth and improve the taste of food. Radiation therapy can cause dry mouth and altered taste sensation.

Choice B: This is incorrect because providing three large meals daily can be overwhelming and unappetizing for the client. The nurse should provide small, frequent meals that are high in protein and calories.

Choice C: This is incorrect because adding honey to sweeten fruit smoothies can irritate the throat and increase the risk of infection. The nurse should avoid foods that are acidic, spicy, or sticky.

Choice D: This is incorrect because heating food before serving can enhance the unpleasant taste and smell of food. The nurse should serve food cold or at room temperature.

Choice A reason: Hypertension is not a sign of a septic reaction, but rather a sign of a hypertensive or circulatory overload reaction to the blood transfusion.

Choice B reason: Distended neck veins are not a sign of a septic reaction, but rather a sign of a circulatory overload or cardiac failure reaction to the blood transfusion.

Choice C reason: Polyuria is not a sign of a septic reaction, but rather a sign of a hemolytic or renal failure reaction to the blood transfusion.

Choice D reason: Vomiting is a sign of a septic reaction, which occurs when the blood transfusion is contaminated with bacteria. Other signs of a septic reaction include fever, chills, hypotension, and shock.
