Question 1 of 5

The nurse is administering an estrogen blocker to a client diagnosed with advanced breast cancer. Which of the following side effects will the nurse caution the client regarding?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Thromboembolic events. Estrogen blockers increase the risk of blood clots, leading to thromboembolic events such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. This risk is particularly important in cancer patients due to their already heightened risk of clotting. Tendon rupture (
A) is not associated with estrogen blockers. Phlebitis (
B) refers to vein inflammation, not directly related to estrogen blockers. An increase in lymphomas (
C) is not a common side effect of estrogen blockers.
Therefore, the nurse should caution the client about the potential for thromboembolic events as the most significant side effect to watch for.
