ANSWER,
* Calculation of volume(ml) of drug required.
Volume(ml) = Desired dose(D)/Dose in hand(H) * Quantity(Q).
Here
Ordered dose = 0.25 mg/kg/day.
Weight of the patient = 80 kg.
So
Desired dose(D) = 0.25 * 80
= 20 mg.
Dose in hand(H) = 50 mg.
Quantity(Q) = 10 ml
As per above formula
Volume(ml) of drug required = D/H * Q
= 20/50 * 10
= 0.4 * 10
= 4 ml per day.
