Children are often given antibiotics in liquid form, called an oral suspension. Pharmacists make up these suspensions by mixing medication in powder form with water. They use proportions to calculate the volume of the suspension for the amount of medication that has been prescribed. In Exercises, do the of the following.
(a) Find the total amount of medication in milligrams to be given over the full course of treatment.
(b) Write a proportion that can be solved to find the total volume of the liquid suspension that the pharmacist will prepare. Use x as the variable.
(c) Solve the proportion to determine the total volume of the oral suspension.
Logan’s pediatric nurse practitioner has prescribed 375 mg of Amoxil a day for 7 days to treat his ear infection. The pharmacist uses 125 mg of Amoxil in each 5 mL of the suspension. (Source: www.drugs.com)
