Mrs. Reed's flexiril (muscle relaxant) dose was ordered to be given at hs (hours of sleep). It would be a medication administration error if the dose was given at

7 am
3 pm
10 pm
12 pm

The correct answer is: 7 am

It would be a medication administration error if the dose was given at 7 am because hs (hours of sleep) indicates the medication should be taken at bedtime. Option B (3 pm) and option D (12 pm) are also incorrect as they are not the prescribed time for taking the medication according to the order. Option C (10 pm) would be the correct time for administering the dose, as it aligns with the prescription for taking the medication at bedtime. Giving the medication at any other time could potentially cause an overdose or interfere with the effectiveness of the medication. It is important to administer medications according to the prescribed schedule to ensure patient safety and proper treatment.
