directions: use the label to identify the information requested.
this medication can be crushed and mixed with apple sauce.
true
false

Explanation:

Analyze the medication label

Using the Medication Label Interpretation knowledge point, we locate the specific instructions on the drug label for Invega (paliperidone) Extended-Release Tablets. The label explicitly states: "Tablets should be swallowed whole. Do not divide, crush, or chew."

Evaluate the statement

The question asks whether the statement "This medication can be crushed and mixed with apple sauce" is True or False. Based on the direct instruction on the label, crushing is strictly prohibited because it is an extended-release formulation. Therefore, the statement is false.

Answer:

• True
• False (Correct answer)
