The medication order reads,
 
  Give ondansetron (Zofran) 4 mg, 30 minutes before beginning chemotherapy to prevent nausea. The nurse notes that the route is missing from the order. What is the nurse's best action?
  a. Give the medication intravenously because the patient might vomit.
  b. Give the medication orally because the tablets are available in 4-mg doses.
  c. Contact the prescriber to clarify the route of the medication ordered.
  d. Hold the medication until the prescriber returns to make rounds.
