A pharmacist adds 10 ml of a 20% w/v solution of a drug to a 500 ml D5W for parenteral infusion. What is the % strength of the drug in the infusion solution?
In this case, let x1= 20 and x2= 0, since the active ingredient dextrose in D5W is not considered in this case.
The % strength of the drug in the infusion solution can be calculated as
xpph (w/v)=
=
%/
10ml
( To convert 20% into the quantity of active ingredients , it is multiplied by 10 which is the quantity added).
=
=
By direct addition, we get,
= 
=
=
=
% (W/V)
The % strength of drug in infusion solution is 0.39% (W/V).
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...
