    Explanation:

    Only statement 1st is correct.

    • Swallow the capsule or tablet whole. Do not crush, break, chew, or open it. If you cannot swallow the tablet whole, you may dissolve it with a small quantity of water in a teaspoon for about 1 minute. Swallow the mixture right away, then drink a glass of water.

    • While hydroxyurea can be an effective treatment for sickle cell disease in children, it is important for parents and caregivers to be aware of the potential side effects. Common side effects of hydroxyurea can include nausea, vomiting, and hair loss. 

    Hence option 1st is correct.
