Answer 1.25 mL Doctor's order: streptomycin sulfate 0.5 g IM q 12 hr Available 1 g vial of streptomycin sulfate in powdered form with the following instructions: Dilute with 1.8mL sterile water to YIELD 400 mg/mL Step 1: Essential information Desired= Doctor's order= 0.5 g IM q 12 hr Have= YIELD 400 mg/mL. (It's already in fraction form so don't worry about the vial size. The dilute is extra info too). Step 2: Convert? Yes conver 0.5 g into mg because HAVE is in mg KHDBDCMxxMc 0.5 g= 500 mg Step 3: D/H 500 mg/ (400 mg/mL)=1.25 mL

Doctor orders Oxacillin 300 mg IM Vial of powder is labeled 2g Direction on label: Reconstitute with 11.5 mL sterile water to YIELD 250 mg/1.5 mL Administer _____mL Shade the amount in syringe

Answer 1.8 mL Doctor orders Oxacillin 300 mg IM Vial of powder is labeled 2g Direction on label: Reconstitute with 11.5 mL sterile water to YIELD 250 mg/1.5 mL Administer _____mL Step 1: Essential info Desired=orders= 300 mg IM Have=YIELD (fraction)= 250 mg/1.5 mL Step 2: Convert? No Step 3: simplify? Can 250 mg/1.5 mL=166.666667 mg/mL Step 4: D/H 300 mg/ (166.666667 mg/mL) =1.799999 mL ROUND (if answer is >1 round to the nearest tenth, if its <1 round to the hundredth) 1.8 mL

Calculate the following oral dosages. Express doses to the nearest hundredth WHERE NECESSARY. Doctor's order: Penicillin V potassium 1 tsp aid X 10 days Available: 10-g bottle of penicillin V potassium oral suspension with the following instructions: Add 117 mL water to YIELD 200 mL oral solution. Each teaspoon will contain how much? A. 250 mg B. 100 mg C. 2.5 mg D. 10 mg HINT: it's asking for how much in each teaspoon. You're not going to use D/H

Answer A 250 mg/mL Doctor's order: Penicillin V potassium 1 tsp aid X 10 days Available: 10-g bottle of penicillin V potassium oral suspension with the following instructions: Add 117 mL water to YIELD 200 mL oral solution. Each teaspoon will contain how much? Step 1: Essential Info Desired: 1 tsp (doctor's order) Have: YIELD is 200 mL but there's no fraction so look at the size of the bottle (10 g). Have = 10 g/ 200 mL Step 2: conversion? Yes HAVE is in mL units and DESIRED is in tsp. BUT, the question is asking for mg 1) Convert HAVE (10 g/200 mL)INTO mg 1 g = 1000 mg 10 X 1 g= 1000 mg X 10. (Don't do anything with the denominator) 10,000 mg/ 200 mL = HAVE Step 3: Simplify? Can 10,000 mg/ 200 mL= 50 mg/mL Step 4: You HAVE 50 mg/mL, in other words in each mL there is 50 mg of penicillin V potassium Step 5: What is the ORDER? 1 tsp Need to convert to find out how many mL IS IN EACH tsp 1 tsp = 5 mL. Now look at your HAVE 50 mg/mL and multiply it by 5 because in the ORDER you have 1 tsp which =5mL 5 X (50 mg/mL)= 250 mg/mL Answer A 250 mg/mL
