Weight of the patient is 199lb = 199×0.45 = 89.5 kg
Vd = 0.2 L/kg
Half Life = 6hr
Dose of drug = 150mg , total time of 2hrs
Assume thle nurse sets the infusion pump at 2ml/min
Drug concentration = Dose /Vd
= 150 mg / 0.2 L
= 750 mg/L

In preparing an infusion of the drug trastuzumab, a pharmacist adds 20 ml of bacteriostatic water for injection to a vial containing 440 mg of the mAb. The resulting solution contains trastuzumab, 21 mg/ml. Using the information: Trastuzumab loading dose: 4 mg/kg with 90 min infusion (a) Calculate the milliliters of solution required for the loading dose for a 165 lb. Patient. (b) The pharmacist then transfers the calculated volume into an infusion bag containing 250 ml of sodium chloride...
