Before administering the ceftriaxone (Rocephin), you must verify the dose with another RN. The therapeutic range is 100 mg/kg/day divided in two doses. J.H. weighs 3.5 kg. Is the dose ordered safe? (Show your work.).
Homework Answers
The therapeutic range of ceftriaxone (Rocephin)= 100 mg/kg/day divided in two doses.
Weight of the patient= 3.5 kg
= 3.5X100 = 350 mg per day = 350/2= 175 mg
175/dose is therapeutic range.
Ordered is 260 mg in two divided doses. means 130 mg per dose.
Hence it is safe.
