nurse is caring for a client who has atopic dermatitis and a prescription for triamcinolone
ointment. The nurse should assess the client to monitor for which of the following adverse
effects?
Increased pigmentation
Topical glucocorticoid therapy can cause the adverse effect of hypopigmentation.
Localized hair loss
Long-term glucocorticoid therapy can cause hypertrichosis, or excessive hair growth,
especially on the facial area.
Thinning of the skin
MY ANSWER
Thinning of the skin and delayed healing are adverse effects of topical glucocorticoid
preparations. The client should only apply the ointment to dry patches of the skin because
topical steroids can cause atrophy of the dermis and epidermis, which can result in thinning of
the skin.
Increased sensitivity to the sun
The nurse should instruct the client to avoid excessive sun exposure when taking topical
fluticasone; however, triamcinolone ointment does not cause photosensitivity.
