Answer to Question 1

A, B, E
Side effects and indication of toxicity include tinnitus, hyperventilation, dizziness, headaches, and nausea and vomiting.

Answer to Question 2

D
The child may not wish to discuss this subject with his or her parents. Telling children not to think about it or to wait until the class meets will likely encourage them to turn to their peers, who are often just as uninformed. The nurse should listen and then provide appropriate counseling.
