"I should use a laxative every other day."

Explanation:

Based on the information provided it can be said that the main statement that a client can make, which indicates that they need additional teaching would be "I should use a laxative every other day." This is because laxatives should be used occasionally and on a short term basis, since using them frequently can be very harmful to the body, and in some cases the body can become dependent on them.
