Extract:


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 an adverse effect of this medication?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Sedation. Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine that commonly causes drowsiness and sedation as a side effect due to its central nervous system depressant properties. This sedative effect can impair alertness and coordination. Bradycardia (
A), constipation (
B), and hypertension (
C) are not typically associated adverse effects of diphenhydramine. Bradycardia is more commonly associated with certain medications like beta-blockers, constipation may occur with opioids, and hypertension is more commonly linked to stimulant medications.
Therefore, the correct choice for an adverse effect of diphenhydramine is sedation.
