Answer:

A. Contact the provider to discuss an order for pretreatment laboratory work.

Explanation:

The drug manual indicates that this drug should be given with caution to elderly patients. Getting information about liver function before giving the drug establishes baseline data that can be compared with post-treatment data to determine whether the drug is affecting the liver. Giving the correct dose at the correct interval helps to minimize risk, but without baseline information, the effects cannot be determined. The drug is not contraindicated.

my boyfriend and i are both literal psychopaths. we don't hurt people physically, but we take joy in hurting people mentally. me
Burka [1]
If you take joy in seeing people hurt mentally, it could escalate to physical torment quickly. This is dangerous and will turn into a crime.
 It can cause people to commit suicide, and have mental issues as well.
You are not only ruining yourself, but others.
You and your boyfriend need serious help.
 I'd talk to your parents. At least you are noticing this now, I hope you plan to become better and learn to change your ways.
