A nurse is caring for a client who has a new prescription for fluoxetine. Which of the following adverse effects should the nurse monitor for?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: All of the above. Fluoxetine, an antidepressant, can cause weight loss, insomnia, and sexual dysfunction as common adverse effects. Weight loss may occur due to decreased appetite, insomnia can result from the stimulating effect of the medication, and sexual dysfunction is a known side effect. Monitoring for all these adverse effects is crucial to ensure the client's well-being.
Choice A (weight loss) is incorrect because weight gain is more common.
Choice B (insomnia) is incorrect because it is a known adverse effect of fluoxetine.
