1. Weight of the child is 66lbs = 66× 0.45 = 29.7kg
Ordered dose of medication is 30mg/kg = 30× 29.7

891 mg of the drug will be given to the child .
2. Weight of the child is 44lbs = 44× 0.45= 19.8 kg
Ordered dose of medication is 30mg/kg = 30× 19.8
= 594 mg
594 mg of the drug will be given to the child
3. Ordered dose of Cefadroxil is 30mg/kg
Weight of the child is 44lbs = 44× 0.45 = 19.8kg
