A patient's status post hypophysectomy had drainage on the mustache dressing. Which complication is this patient at risk for if the glucose level of the drainage is 50 mg/dL?

A. Hirsutism, or excessive hair growth, is more commonly associated with conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or Cushing’s syndrome, rather than Addison’s disease.
B. Hyperpigmentation is a characteristic sign of Addison’s disease. Due to insufficient cortisol production in the adrenal glands, there is an increase in melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH), which leads to darkening of the skin, particularly in areas exposed to friction like elbows, knees, and the face.
C. Purple striations are a common finding in Cushing’s syndrome, which results from excessive cortisol production. They are not typically seen in Addison's disease.
D. Intention tremors are more commonly associated with neurological conditions, such as Parkinson’s disease, rather than Addison’s disease, which primarily affects the adrenal glands.

A. Taking inhaled beclomethasone with meals is not necessary, as this medication works locally in the lungs and does not require food to be absorbed or tolerated.
B. Rinsing the mouth after using inhaled corticosteroids like beclomethasone is important to prevent the development of oral thrush (a fungal infection) and reduce the risk of other side effects, such as hoarseness.
C. Checking the pulse after medication administration is not required for beclomethasone. While some medications affect heart rate, inhaled corticosteroids like beclomethasone are not typically associated with this effect.
D. Limiting caffeine intake is not necessary when using beclomethasone. Caffeine is a stimulant that may interact with some medications, but it does not typically interfere with corticosteroids used in asthma treatment.
