Aisa is to receive a liquid iron preparation. Which of the following directions would be appropriate for the nurse to teach Aisa's mother? a.Administer this at least an hour before meals
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Avoid giving Aisa orange or other citric juices with the iron preparation. Citric juices, such as orange juice, can decrease the absorption of iron in the body. Therefore, it is important to avoid giving these juices when administering the liquid iron preparation to Aisa to ensure optimal absorption of the iron. It would be best to encourage the use of non-citric juices or water when administering the iron preparation to Aisa.
