The nurse is preparing to administer Azithromycin, and the pharmacy has provided the drug in a powder form that requires reconstitution connected to a saline piggyback. Which of the following is least concerning when preparing the medication?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The brand or trade name is not required to be on the medication label if the generic name is present. The nurse should check that the medication is not expired and that it has been stored according to the storage instructions. If the saline bag is leaking, it may indicate that the container is damaged and the fluid may not be sterile.
