A nurse is caring for a client who is taking clozapine. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?

Rationale: A. Tinnitus: Tinnitus is not a known or common adverse effect of clozapine. While it may indicate another condition, it does not require immediate reporting in the context of clozapine therapy. B. Dizziness: Dizziness can occur due to clozapine’s hypotensive effects, especially when initiating therapy. It is usually self-limiting and managed symptomatically unless it worsens or affects safety. C. Sore throat: A sore throat can signal the onset of agranulocytosis, a life-threatening side effect of clozapine marked by a dangerously low white blood cell count. It must be reported immediately for prompt blood count evaluation. D. Diaphoresis: Diaphoresis may occur with many medications and is not specific to clozapine toxicity or serious adverse effects. It typically does not warrant immediate reporting unless severe or part of a broader concerning symptom complex.
