Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has been taking lisinopril for several months. The nurse should plan to check which of the following laboratory values to monitor for adverse effects of the medication?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Potassium. Lisinopril is an ACE inhibitor that can cause hyperkalemia as a side effect. Monitoring potassium levels is crucial to prevent complications such as cardiac arrhythmias. Checking calcium levels (
