Answer to Question 1

D
Aspirin products are avoided because of the possibility of developing Reye's syndrome. The parent should check labels on all over-the-counter products to be sure they do not contain aspirin. Dressing the child in light clothing and using lightweight covers will help reduce fever and promote the child's comfort. Adequate hydration will help maintain a normal body temperature. Acetaminophen or ibuprofen should be used as directed for fever control.

Answer to Question 2

B
The first measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine is recommended routinely at 1 year of age. Some immunizations are initiated at 2 months of age, but not the measles vaccine. The second dose of MMR is recommended at 4 to 6 years of age. Children should receive their second MMR dose no later than 11 to 12 years of age.
