Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The nurse should prepare the client to manage nasal irritation and nosebleed as these are common side effects associated with the use of Beconase nasal spray. Salt sensitivity and elevation of blood pressure are not listed as side effects of the medication. Bone demineralization and increased risk of fracture are potential long-term side effects associated with the use of inhaled corticosteroids, but this medication is a nasal spray and does not have the same systemic effects. Dyspepsia and gastric irritation are not typically associated with the use of this medication.
