ANS: A
The drug or pharmaceutical should be labeled as soon as it is received into the sterile field. The container and the syringe/delivery device should be clearly marked with the name and concentration of the drug. According to The Joint Commission (TJC) the content of the sterile field drug label should include the first three of the following list and all five on the following list if prepared for use and not yet dispensed to the sterile field: Drug name, strength, amount if not apparent by markings on the container, expiration date if not used within 24 hours, expiration date if expiration occurs within 24 hours.
