Correct answer
A,D
Rationale
The correct answers are A and D. Medications can generally be administered within 30 minutes before or after the scheduled time. A (905) and D (840) fall within this window for a 0900 scheduled administration. B (825) is too early, C (1,000) is too late, and E (935) is also too late. It's important to administer medications close to the scheduled time to maintain therapeutic levels in the body.
