Convert 125 lb to kg which is 56.81 kg. Medication order is 4.5 mcg/kg/min.So multiply 56.81 with 4.5 which is 255.64 mcg/minute. Our goal is to find mL/hr. Convert 255.64 mcg to mL.(1 mcg=is 0.001 ml).1mcg/0.001ml*255.64 mcg/ x ml=0.255 mL/minute.Then convert minute to hours.0.255mL/1min*60 min/1 hr=15.3 mL/hour
