Answer: B - You should check what antibiotic Mrs. Reynolds picked up two days ago and add it to her allergy list. Allergies to medications should never be ignored; if a patient reports an allergic reaction but doesn't remember the medication name, you should make your best effort to determine what medication the patient is allergic to. A broad category of allergies should not be added to the patient's file, unless the patient reports an allergy to this entire category of medications.
