Answer 1

5. 1 mg = 1000 mcg

0.1 mg = 100 mcg..... The order reads Digoxin 100 mcg, which is nothing but 0.1 mg. So we have to give 1 tablet per dose. The right answer is 1 tablet.

6. 2.5 tsp is right answer.

7. The Compazine label reads 5mg = 5ml.... So 1mg = 1 ml

Physician order reads Compazine 8mg.... So we have to give 8 ml per dose. The right answer is 8ml.
