Question 1 of 5
A client with benign prostatic hyperplasia receives a new prescription of tamsulosin. Which intervention should the nurse perform to monitor for an adverse reaction?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Tamsulosin, an alpha-1 blocker, can cause orthostatic hypotension, risking dizziness or fainting. Monitoring blood pressure detects this adverse reaction. Urine output, weights, or bladder scans assess BPH symptoms, not tamsulosin’s side effects.
