Homework Answers
Prescribed amoxicillin= 125 mg
For the patient weighing 25 lb= 25/2.2= 11.36 kg
Safe recommended dosing= 20-40 mg/kg in 3 divided dose
= 20X 11.36 mg to 40 X 11.36 mg in 3 divided dose
=227.2 mg to 454.4 mg in 3 divided dose
Since the ordered dose i.e 125 mg is within the safe recommended dose range i.e. 227.2 mg to 454.4 mg
Hence it is safe dosing.
Available dose strength= 250 mg/5 ml
=50 mg per ml
Hence for the ordered 125 ml required ml= 125/50 ml
= 2.5 ml
