a patient has erythromycin 125mg iv q6h ordered for infection. the drug reference indicates that a safe single dose is 3.75mg/ kg q6h. if the patient weight 66 pounds. is this dose safe?
Homework Answers
Safe single dose is 3.75mg/kg q6h
The patient weight is 66 pounds.
1 pound = 0.454 kg
66 pound= 29.964 kg (approx. 30kg)
So the patient weight is 30 kg.
Safe single dose for this patient is =30 x 3.75= 112.5 mg q6h
But the patient is getting 125mg q6h is greater than safe dose
The patient is not in safe dose
