MedicationsCâu 23 / 100
Which of the following products should NOT be crushed before administration?
a.Immediate-release lisinopril tablet
b.Chewable montelukast tablet
c.Enteric-coated aspirin tablet
d.Scored metoprolol tartrate tablet
Giải thích
The enteric coating on aspirin is designed to keep the tablet intact until it passes the stomach, so crushing destroys that protection and increases gastric irritation. Immediate-release and scored tablets may generally be split or crushed, and chewable tablets are meant to be broken down in the mouth.
