Question 1 of 5
A client who is newly diagnosed with diabetes insipidus (DI) is receiving a synthetic vasopressin intravenously. Which side effect of vasopressin reported by the client should the nurse report to the healthcare provider?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A worsening headache may indicate water retention or hyponatremia, serious complications of vasopressin therapy. This symptom requires immediate reporting for evaluation and potential treatment adjustment, unlike expected DI symptoms like low urine specific gravity, polydipsia, or polyuria.
