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?


▸ Give the medication intravenously because the patient might vomit.

▸ Give the medication orally because the tablets are available in 4-mg doses.

▸ Contact the prescriber to clarify the route of the medication ordered.

▸ Hold the medication until the prescriber returns to make rounds.
