A 10lb cat needs 3 1/2 tanlets that each contain 6 mg of a drug. Whats the equivalent dose in mg/Kg
Homework Answers
ANSWER.
* Equivalent dose in mg/kg.
Weight of the cat = 10 lb.
Convert lb to kg for calculation
1lb = 0.45 kg.
So
Weight of the cat = 4.5 kg.
Each tablet = 6 mg.
Total tablet required for the cat = 3.5 tablets (31/2tab).
Total mg of tablet required = 3 * 6 + 3 mg(1/2 tab)
= 18 + 3
= 21 mg.
Equivalent dose in mg/kg = 21mg / 4.5 kg.
