Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer an enteric-corrected oral medication to a client who is having difficulty swallowing. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Place the medication on the client's tongue. Enteric-coated medications are designed to be released in the small intestine, bypassing the stomach. Placing the medication directly on the tongue allows it to be swallowed without being chewed or broken down in the stomach. Instructing the client to chew the medication (choice
A) or dissolve it in juice (choice
C) would interfere with the enteric coating. Placing the medication between the cheek and gum (choice
D) would not ensure proper delivery to the small intestine.
