Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback
A Formula and milk are essential foods in a child's diet. Medications may alter
their flavor and cause the child to avoid them in the future.
B To prevent the child from developing a negative association with an essential
food, a nonessential food such as applesauce is best for mixing with medications.
C Syrup is not used to mix with medications because of its high sugar content.
D Orange juice is considered an essential food; therefore the nurse should not mix
medications with it.

C Increasing the child's intake of iron in the diet will not correct ITP.
