What action must be taken before an MRI when using a nicotine patch?

  1. Double the dose

  2. Skip the dose

  3. Remove the patch

  4. Apply a second patch

The correct answer is: Remove the patch

Before undergoing an MRI, it is important to remove the nicotine patch. The patch contains metal that can heat up and burn the skin during an MRI, so it must be removed to ensure safety. Doubling the dose, skipping the dose, or applying a second patch are not necessary or appropriate actions to take before an MRI.
