Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching about adverse effects of anastrozole with a client who has advanced breast cancer and is postmenopausal. Which of the following adverse effects should the nurse recommend the client report to the provider?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Musculoskeletal pain. Anastrozole, an aromatase inhibitor used in breast cancer treatment, can cause musculoskeletal pain as a common adverse effect. This is important to report because severe pain may indicate a more serious condition like osteoporosis or fractures. Headache, nausea, and fatigue are common side effects of anastrozole but usually not considered serious enough to report immediately. Summarily, while all options can occur with anastrozole, musculoskeletal pain warrants prompt reporting due to potential implications on bone health.
