Question 26 of 65
Your patient has diltiazem HCl (Cardizem CD®) ordered. They are requesting the capsule be mixed into their morning yogurt. What would be your response?
Sorry, I cannot mix it with food, but you can take it sublingually if you prefer.
Sorry, it is not safe to be administered with dairy products such as yogurt.
Sorry, it is a slow-release medication that cannot be opened or crushed.
Sorry, but the taste of the powder is extremely bitter and intolerable.
