Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing the laboratory findings for a female client who is taking zidovudine to treat HIV. Which of the following should the nurse identify as an adverse finding associated with this medication?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Neutrophil count 650/mm³ (2,500 to 8,000/mm³). Zidovudine can cause bone marrow suppression, leading to decreased neutrophil counts. Neutropenia increases the risk of infections. Platelets within the normal range (choice
B) are not typically affected by zidovudine. High Hgb levels (choice
C) may indicate dehydration or polycythemia but are not directly related to zidovudine. Creatinine levels (choice
D) are markers of kidney function and are not typically affected by zidovudine.
