Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale: A brief rationale, followed by quick administration, decreases the child's anxiety and promotes cooperation with the medication process. It may be necessary to restrain a preschool child for medication administration. Having a parent in the room usually promotes more cooperation from the preschool child. Preschool children do better with play instruction.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: It is best to avoid as many drugs as possible during breastfeeding. The bottle may not be labeled for breastfeeding, so the patient should check with the nurse. There is no safety time limit established between the use of the product and breastfeeding. Herbal products are drugs.
