Answer #1

ANSWER.

* Calculation of number of capsules required for one dose.

       Ordered dose = 200mg (0.2 gm) twice daily or two times a day.

       Available dose = 100 mg / capsule

    So

       Number of capsules required per dose = Ordered dose / Available dose

                                                       = 200 / 100

                                                       = 2 capsules per dose.
