The nurse is reinforcing teaching with a group of caregivers of children diagnosed with iron-deficiency anemia. One of the caregivers tells the group, "I give my child ferrous sulfate." Which statement made by the caregivers is correct regarding giving ferrous sulfate?A) "When I give my son ferrous sulfate I know he also needs potassium supplements."
B) "I always give the ferrous sulfate with meals."
C) "My husband gives our daughter orange juice when she takes her ferrous sulfate, so she gets Vitamin C."
D) "We watch closely for any diarrhea since that usually happens when he takes ferrous sulfate."

C) "My husband gives our daughter orange juice when she takes her ferrous sulfate, so she gets Vitamin C."

Explanation:

Vitamin C aids is the absorption of iron. So, when the administration of ferrous  sulphate is taking place, it should be given to the patient in between meals along with juice, preferably orange juice as it is rich in vitamin C. For best results, iron should not be given with meals. Ferrous sulfate can cause constipation or turn the child's stools black. Hence, the correct option is C.
