Question

A patient who receives 3 teaspoons of Kayexalate four times per day would be receiving a daily dose of ______ tablespoons or _______ounces per day.

Answer 1

Dosage of Kayexalate received by patient is 3 teaspoons 4 times per day

Which is 3 * 4 = 12 teaspoons per day

volume of 1 tea spoon is 5 ml

12 teaspoons per day is 12 * 5 = 60ml per day

Volume of 1 table spoon is 15 ml

so 60 ml per day = 4 tablespoons per day

1 ounce = 30 ml approximately

so 60 ml per day = 2 ounces per day approximately

The patient would be receiving a daily dose of 4 table spoons or 2 ounces per day.
