Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is taking a glucocorticoid. Which of the following findings should indicate to the nurse the client is experiencing hypokalemia?

Correct Answer: A,C,E

Rationale: The correct answers are A, C, and E. Hypokalemia is a common side effect of glucocorticoid use. Muscle weakness is a key indicator due to potassium's role in muscle contraction. Tingling of fingers can occur due to decreased potassium affecting nerve function. Fatigue is another symptom of hypokalemia as potassium is essential for energy production. Hyperactive bowel sounds and peaked T waves are typically associated with hyperkalemia, not hypokalemia.
