Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The treatment of iron-deficiency anemia in the United States includes counseling of parents about diets to include lean meats, fortified cereals, and fruit juices with vitamin C (choice A) as well as dietary counseling to have children ages 1-5 drink no more than 24 oz milk/day (choice C). Administration of iron drops per the recommended dose (choice B) is also a treatment option, but it is not the only option and not always necessary depending on the severity of the anemia. Discussion of the genetic origin of iron-deficiency anemia (choice D) may be appropriate in some cases, but it is not typically a part of the standard treatment protocol.
