Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing the child's medical record. Which of the following medications should the nurse expect the provider to prescribe or reconcile from the child's home medication list?

Correct Answer: B,D,E

Rationale: The correct answer is B, D, and E. Dornase alfa is a medication used for cystic fibrosis, often prescribed for children with this condition. Water-soluble vitamins are commonly given to children to meet their nutritional needs. Pancreatic lipase is used to aid digestion in children with pancreatic insufficiency. Meperidine is not typically prescribed for children due to its potential for toxicity and adverse effects. Acetaminophen is a common over-the-counter medication but may not necessarily be part of the child's prescription regimen.
Therefore, A and C are less likely to be prescribed or reconciled from the child's medication list compared to B, D, and E.
