Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has a new prescription for sertraline for depression. Which of the following findings should the nurse monitor for as an adverse effect?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Insomnia. Sertraline is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) commonly used to treat depression. Insomnia is a common adverse effect of SSRIs, including sertraline, due to the medication's impact on serotonin levels in the brain. The nurse should monitor the client for difficulty falling or staying asleep. Weight loss (
A) is a less common side effect of sertraline and may occur in some individuals. Hypotension (
C) and bradycardia (
D) are not typical adverse effects of sertraline, as it does not have a direct effect on blood pressure or heart rate. Insomnia is the most relevant adverse effect to monitor in this case.
