Where is the best place to take measurement of medication in a medicine cup?
  1. Where the medication shows on the sides
  2. At the highest medication point
  3. At the lowest medication point
  4. Doesn’t matter
Explanation
Answer - C - Medicine cup measurements of medication should be taken at the medication’s lowest point. If medication is measured at the highest point, the measurement will be false. This is because medication hangs on the side of a medicine cup and creates a higher measurement level than it actually is. Therefore, always measure the liquid at the center, at the lowest point.
