Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is taking fluticasone due to chronic allergies. The nurse should monitor the client for which of the following adverse effects?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Fungal infections. Fluticasone is a corticosteroid medication that suppresses the immune system, making the client more susceptible to fungal infections. Corticosteroids can weaken the body's defense against fungal overgrowth, especially in moist areas like the mouth or skin folds. Monitoring for signs of fungal infections such as thrush or skin rashes is essential.
Incorrect choices:
A: Hypertension - Fluticasone is not known to cause hypertension.
C: Decreased immunity - Although fluticasone can suppress the immune system, the specific adverse effect related to this is an increased risk of infections, not decreased immunity.
D: Hypoglycemia - Fluticasone is not associated with causing hypoglycemia in clients.
