Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing discharge instructions with a client who has bipolar disorder and is taking lithium. Which of the following manifestations should the nurse include as an indication of mild toxicity?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Muscle weakness. Mild lithium toxicity can manifest as muscle weakness due to the impact of lithium on neuromuscular function. Other manifestations like urinary retention (
A), constipation (
C), and hyperactivity (
D) are not typically associated with lithium toxicity. Urinary retention and constipation are more commonly seen in anticholinergic toxicity, while hyperactivity is not a typical symptom of lithium toxicity.
Therefore, muscle weakness is the most relevant indication of mild lithium toxicity in this scenario.
