A medication order is for 0.5 g PO every 12 hours. the medication is available in 250 mg tablets. How many tablets should the nurse administer?
Homework Answers
Ordered medication= 0.5 g PO every every12 hours
PO means orally
0.5 g= 500 mg (as 1 g=1000 mg)
Available medication as 250 mg per tablet
Hence for the required dose i.e. 500 mg , the number of tablets required=500/250=2 tablets the nurse should administer to fulfill the medication order.
