Homework Answers
Given
Order:Pediapred
Dose:6.7mg
Available:6.7mg/5ml
Disease to be given 2mg/kg/day
Weight 14 pounds, 6 ounces
To convert to kg multiply by 0.454
=14.6×0.454
=6.6kg
As 1kg=2mg/day
Then 6.6 kg=??mg/day
Cross multiply and divide
=6.6×2÷1
=6.6×2
=13.2mg/day
Frequency:Three doses in a day
Therefore to calculate one dose 13.2÷3= 4.4 mg
So 1 dose=4.4 ml
As availability is 6.7mg/5ml
Therefore 4.4 mg=??ml
Cross multiply and divide
=4.4×5÷6.7
=4.4×0.7
=3.08 or 3ml
Ans:A dosage of 4.4 mg will be given per dose by administering 3ml
