Question 1 of 5

A nurse is administering naloxone to a client who has developed an adverse reaction to morphine. The nurse should identify which of the following findings is a therapeutic effect of naloxone?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Increased respiratory rate. Naloxone is a medication used to reverse the effects of opioids like morphine. Opioids can suppress respiratory function, leading to decreased breathing rate. By administering naloxone, the nurse can reverse this effect, leading to an increase in the client's respiratory rate, which is a therapeutic effect. Decreased blood pressure and decreased nausea are not direct effects of naloxone but may occur as a result of reversing the opioid effects. Increased pain relief is not a therapeutic effect of naloxone but rather the desired effect of opioids like morphine.
