Answer #1

Ticar 4 gm IV every 6 hours.

Weight if the patient is 175 pounds (79.3 kg).

Recommended doses is 200 - 300 mg/ kg/day.in 4 to 6 hours.

So, the minimum dose should be 79.3kg x 200mg = 15, 860mg /day

As per instruction, you can give 15860 mg per day in 4 to 6 doses.

If you give 4 hourly - 15860mg + 6times = 2643mg /dose, it Means 2.64 grams per dose

If you give 6 hourly - 15860mg = 4times = 3965mg /dose, it Means 3.9 grams per dose.

So, minimum you can give 2.7mg 4th hourly and 4 gm 6 hourly.
