- Measurement: Always use a proper measuring device such as an oral syringe or medicine cup to ensure accurate dosing. - Patient Positioning: Position the patient upright to prevent choking or aspiration, especially important in pediatric and geriatric patients. - Label Checking: Verify the medication label and dosage instructions carefully before administration to avoid errors. - Shaking Suspensions: Shake suspensions well before use to ensure the drug particles are evenly distributed.
