Question 1 of 5
The nurse is teaching a group of parents about the use of syrup of ipecac. Which instruction will the nurse provide?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Do not administer ipecac without consulting a poison control center. This is because ipecac is no longer recommended for use in cases of poisoning. It can actually be harmful and may delay the use of more effective treatments. Consulting a poison control center is essential to get guidance on the appropriate course of action.
Choice A is incorrect because giving ipecac with milk is not recommended and does not increase its emetic effect.
Choice C is incorrect as ipecac syrup is the common form used, not the fluid extract.
Choice D is incorrect because the impact of emesis may not be immediate and can vary depending on the individual and the substance ingested.
