1. Question
A client with severe acne is seen in the clinic and the physician prescribes isotretinoin (Accutane). The nurse reviews the client’s medication record and would contact the physician if the client is taking which medication?
CorrectAnswer & Rationale:
Option 1 is correct
Rationale: Isotretinoin is a metabolite of vitamin A and can produce generalized intensification of isotretinoin toxicity. Because of the potential for increased toxicity, vitamin A supplements should be discontinued before isotretinoin therapy. Options 2, 3, and 4 are not contraindicated with the use of isotretinoin.
Test-Taking Strategy: Use the process of elimination. Recalling that isotretinoin is a metabolite of vitamin A will direct you to the correct option. If you are unfamiliar with this medication, review the contraindications associated with its use.
