The 10am medications scheduled for your patient include Keflex 1.5 G in 50 mL of a 5% Dextrose solution. According to the pharmacy, this preparation should be administered in thirty minutes. The IV tubing on your unit delivers 15 gtts per milliliter. What is the correct rate of flow in drops per minute?
Homework Answers
Keflex 1.5 G in 50 mL of a 5% Dextrose solution in 30 mts
50ml/30 x 15 gtts per milliliter
= 50 x 15/30 gtts/min
= 750/30 gtts/min
= 25 gtts/min
