The content of a vial of penicillin G potassium weighs 600mg and represents 1 million units. How many milligrams are needed to prepare 15g of an ointment that is to contain 15,000 units of penicillin G potassium per gram? I already know the answer but I'm not sure how to work it out. Thank you.
Order
Penicillin G.
Available dose= 600 mg / 1 million units.
Needed dose= 15 gram. And 15000 units / 1 gram.
Calculation.
As we need answer in mg so we will not convert mg to gram.
= 600 mg / 1000000 units X 15000 units / 1 gram X 15 gm
after cancelling out units and gram we will get 135 mg.
= After calculation 135 mg will be obtained .
