Homework Answers
The ordered dose of ciprofloxacin is 200 mg to infuse in 30 min.
And the pharmacy provides ciprofloxacin 200 mg in a 100 mL bag of normal saline.
It means, 100 mL is to be infused for 30 mintues to administer the ordered dose of 200 mg of ciprofloxacin.
So the rate of infusion will be:
= 100mL/30min
= 3.33 mL /minute.
~ 3 mL/minute (as whole number)
