Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who has thyrotoxicosis after taking too high of a level of levothyroxine. Which of the following manifestations should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Heat intolerance. Thyrotoxicosis, caused by excessive levothyroxine intake, results in excessive thyroid hormone levels leading to increased metabolism. This increased metabolism causes the body to produce excess heat, resulting in heat intolerance. Drowsiness (
A) is not a typical manifestation of thyrotoxicosis; instead, patients may experience insomnia or restlessness due to hyperactivity. Bradycardia (
C) is a manifestation of hypothyroidism, the opposite condition of thyrotoxicosis. Dry skin (
D) is also a manifestation of hypothyroidism due to decreased metabolic activity.
