Detailed explanation-1: -If the patient is unable to administer the drug independently, it is given by a nurse or healthcare professional using the Eight Rights of Medication Administration, which include right patient, right medication, right dose, right route, right time and frequency, right documentation, right reason, and right response.
Detailed explanation-2: -The “five rights” for drug administration are right patient, right time, right medication, right dose, and right route. Therefore “right dose” would be the correct answer.
