The nurse should divide the dose. Administer 0.75 mL IM in each vastus lateralis.

A toddler is classified as a child who is between the age of 12 months to 36 months.

Intramuscular (IM) drug administration is the type of drug administration that entails the administration of drug into the muscles.
