The caregivers of a 1-year-old boy tell the nurse they are frustrated because the medication their child requires daily comes in pill form, which they have been unable to get him to swallow

Which of the following would be appropriate advice for the nurse to give these caregivers to help them make sure the child gets the full dose of medication each day? A) Grind the tablet to a powder and give it to the child in the pureed peas he loves to eat. B) Dissolve the tablet in water and add a little corn syrup; have him drink the resulting fluid. C) Hold him firmly on the caregiver's lap and insert the tablet beneath his tongue; hold his mouth firmly shut for a minute or so until his urge to expel the tablet passes. D) Break the tablet into smaller pieces and put them beneath his tongue. Remember that babies need to learn how to swallow, so if he thrusts the pill piece out of his mouth, simply push it back in.
