Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client about taking diphenhydramine. The nurse should explain to the client that which of the following is a side effect of this medication?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Sedation. Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine that commonly causes sedation as a side effect due to its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and act on the central nervous system. This sedative effect is why diphenhydramine is often used in medications to help with sleep or allergies. Bradycardia (
A) is not a common side effect of diphenhydramine, as it does not significantly affect heart rate. Hypertension (
B) is also not associated with this medication. Bleeding (
C) is not a typical side effect of diphenhydramine, as it does not have anticoagulant properties. Thus, the correct answer is D due to the sedative properties of diphenhydramine.
