ANSWER.
* Calculation of number of tablet required.
Ordered dose = 45 mg/kg/day.
Dose in hand = 200 mg / scored tablet.
Weight of the patient = 40 lb.
Convert 40 lb to kg for calculation
1 lb = 0.45 kg.
So
Weight of the patient = 40 * 0.45
= 18 kg.
Dose per day required for this patient = 45 * 18
= 810 mg.
Number of tablet required = Total dose required per day / dose in one tablet.
= 810 / 200
= 4.05
= 4 tablets / day.
