To correctly administer nose drops, the nurse should:
 
  a. insert dropper about 1/2 inch into the nostril and allow drops to remain at least 10 minutes
  b. insert dropper about 3/8 inch into the nostril and have client inhale as drops are administered
  c. have client blow nose and then insert dropper about 3/4 inch into the nostril
  d. have client blow nose; then insert dropper about 1/2 inch into the nostril and allow drops to remain at least 10 minutes

B
When administering nose drops, insert dropper about 3/8-inch into the nostril and have the client inhale as drops are administered. This prevents the medication from leaking out of the nares and allows for proper delivery.
