Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer the initial dose of penicillin G IM to a client. The nurse should monitor for which of the following as an indication of an allergic reaction following the injection?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Urticaria. Urticaria, or hives, is a classic sign of an allergic reaction. It presents as raised, red, itchy welts on the skin. This occurs due to histamine release in response to the allergen (penicillin in this case). Monitoring for urticaria is crucial as it indicates a potentially serious allergic reaction that may progress to anaphylaxis. Bradycardia (
B), Pallor (
C), and Dyspepsia (
D) are not typically associated with allergic reactions to penicillin. Bradycardia is a slow heart rate, pallor is paleness of the skin, and dyspepsia is indigestion. These symptoms are more likely related to other conditions or side effects rather than an allergic reaction.
