1. Vasopressin is used to help the kidneys conserve water.
Assume a dose of 10 units of vasopressin is administered by IM
injection six times each day. If the concentration of vasopressin
solution is 20 units/ml, how many milliliters are present in each
injection?
2. Among other applications, oxytocin is used to induce labor. An IV dose of oxytocin can start at 0.002 units/min and then be increased by 0.001 units every 15 min until contractions become well established. How many hours will it take for a dose of 0.02 units/min to be reached?
Homework Answers
1.Given
Medication :Vasopressin
Route :IM
Dose:10 units /dose
Frequency:6 times a day
Available :20 units=1ml
So 10 units=0.5ml
Ans.0.5 ml is present in each injection
2.Given
Medication :Oxytocin
Route:IV
Starting dose 0.002units/min
Can be increased by 0.001 units /15minutes
Dose to be achieved 0.02 units/min
It will take 5 hours to reach a dose of 0.02units/minute
(In 1 hour=0.004units/min,2 hours=0.008 units/min,3 hour =0.012 unit/min,4hour=0.016units/min,5 hour=0.020units/min)
