The grandfather of an alert and oriented 2-year-old girl found her on the floor playing with pills from his open bottle of Digoxin (heart medication that slows the rate). He cannot remember how many pills were in the bottle, but he thinks that some are missing and she may have eaten them thinking that they were candy. Assessment reveals her airway to be open and breathing adequate. Her pulse is

appropriate for a child her age and her skin warm and dry. Her grandfather is not sure of how long ago she may have taken the pills. Given the assessment findings, the EMT would assume:

A) not enough Digoxin was taken to harm the child.
B) the child apparently did not take any Digoxin.
C) the child must have spit the pills out before swallowing them.
D) the Digoxin pills have yet to absorb into the body.
