Answer 1

Answer #1

ANSWER.

13) Calculation of volume(ml) of drug required.

Volume(ml) = Desired dose(D)/Dose in hand(H) * Quantity(Q)

Here

Desired dose(D) = 80 mg.

Dose in hand(H) = 60 mg.

Quantity(Q) = 1 ml.

As per above formula

Volume(ml) of drug required = D/H * Q

= 80/60 * 1

= 1.3 ml.
