Question 1 of 5

A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has a new prescription for paroxetine. The nurse should instruct the client to monitor for which of the following adverse effects?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Drowsiness. Paroxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) commonly used to treat depression and anxiety disorders. Drowsiness is a common side effect of paroxetine due to its impact on serotonin levels in the brain. The nurse should instruct the client to monitor for drowsiness as it can affect daily activities and driving. Alopecia (choice
A), tinnitus (choice
C), and peripheral edema (choice
D) are not typically associated with paroxetine use. Alopecia is more commonly seen with chemotherapy drugs, tinnitus may be related to ototoxic medications, and peripheral edema is not a common side effect of SSRIs.
