How can a mother assess her infant's response to medication?

  1. By checking the color of the eyes

  2. By counting the baby's weight gain

  3. Through behavioral changes like irritability

  4. By measuring the baby's length

The correct answer is: Through behavioral changes like irritability

By choosing option C, the mother can assess her infant's response to medication through behavioral changes like irritability. It is important to monitor the baby's behavior as it can indicate how well they are tolerating the medication. Behavioral changes can provide valuable insights into how the medication is affecting the baby's overall well-being and can help the mother make informed decisions about the course of treatment. Checking the color of the eyes, counting weight gain, or measuring the baby's length are not reliable ways to assess an infant's response to medication compared to observing behavioral changes.
