Question 1 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from a client who has taken an overdose of oxycodone. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Sedation. Oxycodone is a central nervous system depressant, leading to sedation as a common side effect. Tachycardia (
A) and tachypnea (
B) are more commonly seen with stimulants, not depressants like oxycodone. Dilated pupils (
D) are typically associated with stimulant or hallucinogenic drug use. In summary, sedation is the expected finding due to the depressant nature of oxycodone, making the other choices incorrect.
