The 8-year-old patient is receiving methylphenidate (Ritalin). The patient's mother tells the nurse that he won't eat while on his medication. What is the best response by the nurse?
 
  1. It sounds like he is becoming depressed. I will speak to the doctor about starting an antidepressant medication.
  2. Give the medication after meals and encourage him to have supplements between meals.
  3. You are right to be concerned. I will speak to the doctor about starting an appetite stimulant medication.
  4. This is a very serious concern; it would be best for him to see a nutritionist for counseling.
