Order.
Iron sulfate.
Weight of the patient= 67kg.
Needed dose. = 7 mg/ kg in single dose.
Total dose that is needed is.
= 69*7mg/kg body weight.
=469 mg iron sulfate is needed.
Available total solution is 875 mg in 10 ml.
= Desired dose/ dose on hand *quantity of dilution.
= 469 mg/ 875 mg *10 ml
=. 5.36 ml ~ 5.40 ml aqueous solution is needed.
Molecular weight = 399.88 gm/ mol.
Weight of drug needed is= 469 mg.
Valency of iron (iii) sulphate is 3 ( three)
Formula mEq=
mEq= Weight in grams *valence / molecular weight.
mEq= 469 mg * 3 / 399.88 gm/ mol.
As,molecular weight is given in grams / mol ,convert it to mg/ mmol
To convert 399.88gm/ mol *1000mg/ 1g * 1mol /1000mmol
399.88 mg/ mmol
mEq= weight in mg * valence / molecular weight.
mEq= 469 mg *3/ 399.880 mg/ mmol
mEq= 1407 / 399.880
= 3.51 Meq ( milliequivalents) will be received by the patient in a single dose.

A 58 kg patient is in need of intravenous iron supplementation. She was ordered to receive a single intravenous 7 mg/kg dose of iron (III) sulfate (ferric sulfate - Fe2(SO4)3 MW-399.88 g/mol). Iron (III) sulfate was prepared as a stabilized aqueous solution for this patient by dissolving 750 mg of stabilized iron sulfate salt in water to produce 20 mL of solution. How many milliequivalents of iron (Fe 3+) will the patient receive as a single dose? Assume the salt...

answer for this question should be in MEq not ml answer should be in units of mOsmol/L A 71 kg patient is in need of intravenous iron supplementation. She was ordered to receive a single intravenous 9 mg/kg dose of iron (III) sulfate (ferric sulfate - Fe2(SO4)3 - MW=399.88 g/mol). Iron (III) sulfate was prepared as a stabilized aqueous solution for this patient by dissolving 975 mg of stabilized iron sulfate salt in water to produce 15 mL of solution....
A patient is ordered to receive sodium supplementation by intravenous infusion of a sodium carbonate solution [Na2CO3 , MW=105.989 g/mol]. The patient is ordered to receive 0.8 mEq of Na + ions per hour. A 750 mL intravenous bag is prepared that contains 27 mL of a 4.2% solution of sodium carbonate. What should be the infusion rate (in units of mL/min) necessary to produce the ordered dose of 0.8 mEq/hr of sodium? (Note: Consider the total solution volume to...
