A healthcare provider is assessing a client who is taking levothyroxine. The healthcare provider should recognize that which of the following findings is a manifestation of levothyroxine overdose?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Insomnia is a common symptom of levothyroxine overdose due to excessive stimulation of the central nervous system. Levothyroxine is a thyroid hormone replacement medication, and an overdose can lead to hyperthyroidism symptoms, including insomnia. Constipation and drowsiness are not typically associated with levothyroxine overdose. Hypoactive deep-tendon reflexes are more indicative of hypothyroidism rather than an overdose of levothyroxine.
