"qod" stands for "every other day" in medication administration terminology. This is commonly used to indicate the frequency of taking a medication, meaning it should be taken every second day. The other options are incorrect because they do not pertain to frequency of medication administration. Option A, "shortness of breath," is a symptom that may need medication but is not related to the frequency of administration. Option B, "tablet," is a form of medication but does not specify how often it should be taken. Option D, "times," could be interpreted as referring to a specific time of day, but it does not specify how often the medication should be taken. Therefore, the most appropriate and accurate answer is C, "every other day."
