A young woman comes to your pharmacy counter to ask where she can find the aspirin for her 2 year old daughter. What should you tell her?

You can find it in aisle 32
I should get the pharmacist for you
That product is not available
You should give her Tylenol instead of aspirin

Explanation

Answer: B - You should tell the patient to wait for the pharmacist. Aspirin is not recommended for use in children, due to the risk of Reyes Syndrome. If a parent comes to your counter trying to find aspirin to give to their child, you should have them speak to the pharmacist, so that an alternative can be recommended.
