A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving neostigmine. Which of the following manifestations should the nurse identify as an adverse reaction to the medication? (Select all that apply.)

Furosemide is a loop diuretic commonly used to treat fluid volume excess by promoting diuresis. One of the expected outcomes of furosemide administration is an increased urinary output as excess fluid is eliminated from the body. Therefore, if the medication has been effective, the nurse would expect to see an increased urinary output as a result of the diuretic effect.

Increased respiratory rate (B) is not an expected outcome of furosemide administration. It may occur in some cases due to increased fluid elimination and potential electrolyte imbalances, but it is not the primary indicator of the medication's effectiveness.

Decreased blood pressure (C) is a possible outcome of furosemide administration due to the diuretic effect and subsequent reduction in fluid volume. However, it is not the most specific indicator of the medication's effectiveness in this case.

Increased pulse (D) is not a typical finding associated with the effectiveness of furosemide. In fact, furosemide can sometimes cause a decrease in heart rate due to its impact on fluid and electrolyte balance.

The client statement that indicates an understanding of the teaching is: "The medication can cause drowsiness."

Promethazine is an antihistamine medication commonly used to treat various conditions, such as allergies, motion sickness, and nausea. One of the most common side effects of promethazine is drowsiness or sedation. It has a significant sedative effect, and it is often used to induce sleep or manage insomnia in some cases.

Let's go through the other options:

A. "This medication can cause diarrhea": Diarrhea is not a common side effect of promethazine. While promethazine can cause certain gastrointestinal side effects like constipation or upset stomach, diarrhea is not typically associated with its use.

B. "The medication can cause increased salivation": Increased salivation is not a common side effect of promethazine. While some antihistamines can cause dry mouth, which is the opposite of increased salivation, promethazine does not usually cause excessive salivation.

C. "This medication can cause pupil constriction": Pupil constriction (miosis) is a potential side effect of some medications, but it is not commonly associated with promethazine. Promethazine is more likely to cause pupil dilation (mydriasis) rather than constriction.
