A patient is given an initial dose of 200 mg of quinidine sulfate, followed later in the day by two 200-mg doses. The daily dosage is then increased by 200 mg/day until a daily dose of 3000 mg is reached. How many 200-mg quinidine sulfate tablets will be needed for this regimen?
Homework Answers
ANSWER.
* Calculation of number of quinidine tablets required for this regimen.
Total dose of quinidine tablets required = 3000 mg per day.
Available dose = 200 mg
So
Number of quinidine tablets required = Total dose/Available dose
= 3000 / 200
= 15 tablets per day.
