The correct completion of the sentence is:A. if you had given the patient his medicine?Explanation:When reporting a question in indirect speech, the tense is often shifted back one step. Since the original question is in the present perfect tense ("Have you given"), in reported speech, it becomes "if you had given."Additionally, the pronoun "you" is appropriate for the nurse, who is being addressed by the doctor.Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
