Question 1 of 5

A 34-year-old patient with chronic hepatitis C infection has several medications prescribed. Which medication requires further discussion with the healthcare provider before administration?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Pegylated α-interferon (PEG-Intron, Pegasys) SQ weekly. Pegylated α-interferon is typically administered once weekly, not daily.
Therefore, this medication requires further discussion with the healthcare provider before administration to ensure the correct dosing frequency. Ribavirin, choice A, is appropriate for chronic hepatitis C treatment.

Choices C and D, Diphenhydramine and Dimenhydrinate, are commonly used for symptomatic relief in patients with hepatitis C and do not require further discussion with the healthcare provider in this context.
