A nurse is preparing to administer levothyroxine 0.175 mg PO once a day. The amount available is levothyroxine 88 mcg/tablet. How many tablets should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero)

A. "Your husband is correct. Constant attention makes an infant irritable and spoiled." This statement is not accurate. Infants need responsive caregiving and interaction with their caregivers for healthy emotional development. Providing attention to meet the baby's needs is not synonymous with spoiling.

B. "Your husband is concerned for you as giving so much attention to an infant significantly depletes your energy." While it's true that caring for a baby can be physically demanding and exhausting for parents, this response doesn't address the husband's concern and doesn't provide guidance on infant care.

C. "Your husband is not correct. Interaction helps an infant establish trust."

Option C provides the most appropriate response because it supports the importance of interaction and bonding with the infant, especially during the early stages of development. Establishing trust and attachment with the baby is crucial for their emotional and psychological well-being. Responsive caregiving and interaction with the infant is not associated with spoiling but rather with healthy child development.

D. "Your husband knows what he is talking about. A lot of attention causes a child to become self-centered." This response is not supported by current child development research. Proper attention and interaction with an infant promote healthy attachment and emotional development rather than causing self-centeredness.

A. Trientine: Trientine is a medication used to treat copper overload in conditions like Wilson's disease. It is not indicated for iron overdose or toxicity.

B. Dimercaprol: Dimercaprol, also known as BAL (British Anti-Lewisite), is a chelating agent used to treat heavy metal poisoning but is not primarily used for iron overload or toxicity.

C. Ferrous gluconate: Ferrous gluconate is an iron supplement used to treat iron-deficiency anemia by providing additional iron to the body. It is not appropriate for treating iron overdose, as it would worsen the situation.

D. Deferoxamine.

Iron overdose, also known as iron toxicity, can lead to serious complications, including cardiac dysrhythmias. Deferoxamine is a chelating agent used to remove excess iron from the body in cases of iron overload or toxicity, such as in patients with conditions like sickle cell anemia who require frequent blood transfusions. It binds to excess iron and helps excrete it from the body, reducing the risk of iron-related complications, including cardiac issues.
