Solumedrol 1.5 mg/kg is ordered for a child weighing 4 lb. Solumedrol is available as 75 mg / 3 mL is available. How many mL must the nurse administer?
Homework Answers
Weight in Kg * Dosage Per Kg = Y (Required Dosage)
Convert 4 lb to kg.
lb → kg ( ÷ by 2.2 )
4 lb ÷ 2.2 = 1.8182 kg
1.8182 kg * 1.5 mg/kg = 2.7273 mg
2.7273 mg is ordered and the medication is available as 75 mg / 3 mL.
Ordered/ have X Volume Per Have = Y (Liquid Required)
2.7273 mg/ 75 mg X 3 ml = 0.11 ml
