A maintenance dose of Levophed is 2 mcg/min has been ordered using a solution labeled 8mg in 250 mL. Calculate the mL per hour flow rate
2 mcg/min has been ordered. 120 mcg/hour
8 mg = 8000 mcg.
8000 mcg/250 ml is the concentration.
So, 32 mcg/ml is the concentration.
So, 120/32 = 3.75 ml.
So, 3.75 ml/hour is the flow rate.
