Seven-year-old dani has been prescribed an analgesic in pill form. her father asks whether the pill can be crushed and mixed in a chocolate milkshake for a more pleasant experience. you know that it is safe to crush the pill (it is neither enteric-coated nor sustained release). is it safe to give dani the crushed pill in her milkshake

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A) Possibly, but you would have to know whether it can be safely administered with dairy before deciding.

B) No, because if Dani cannot swallow a pill, she cannot safely swallow a milk shake.

C) Yes, because the only concern is whether it is safe to crush the pills.

D) No, because medication should not be mixed with children's food.

The correct answer will be option-A

Explanation:

Analgesic tablets are the pain reliever drugs which when taken relieve one from pain (analgesia). The analgesic tablets act on the peripheral and central nervous system.

The analgesic tablets are usually enteric coated which should not be taken by crushing the tablet as it can cause gastric problems.

In the given question, since the tablets are not enteric-coated therefore they can be taken by crushing but mixing in the milk should be consulted by the physician as it has to be administered with the dairy milk.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.

answer; i believe the correct answer is (secondary prevention);
