Question 1 of 5

The nurse is assigned to care for a client diagnosed with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) who is receiving amphotericin B for a fungal respiratory infection. Which would indicate an adverse effect of the medication?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Clients receiving amphotericin B may develop hypokalemia, which can be severe and lead to extreme muscle weakness and electrocardiogram changes. Distal renal tubular acidosis commonly occurs, and this contributes to the development of hypokalemia. High potassium levels do not occur. The medication does not cause sodium, chloride, or calcium levels to fluctuate.
