Answer to Question 2

B

Feedback
A Incorrect. Teaching caregivers who will be giving their toddler a liquid iron supplement, the nurse will not teach the parents to administer the liquid iron supplement mixed half and half with water.
B Correct. Liquid iron supplements may stain teeth. If the child is old enough, give the iron solution with a straw. Otherwise, give with a dropper or syringe in the back part of the mouth.
C Incorrect. Teaching caregivers who will be giving their toddler a liquid iron supplement, the nurse will not teach the parents to administer the liquid iron supplement with food such as eggs, milk, cheese, or a slice of toasted whole grain bread with butter. These foods should be avoided within 1 hour before or 2 hours after giving the iron because they interfere with iron absorption.
D Incorrect. Teaching caregivers who will be giving their toddler a liquid iron supplement, the nurse will not teach the parents to administer the liquid iron supplement mixed with antacids for the same reason stated in option C.
