Answer #1

Given:

Ordered dose: 1.5g (1500mg)

Available : 1000mg =1 tablet

Frequency : Twice a day (morning and evening )

So 3000mg / day should be taken by patient ( when 1000mg =1 tablet then 3000mg=3 tablet)

For 7 day (7×3)= 21 tablets

The patient has to be prescribed 21 tablets for 7 days
