Answer #1

ANSWER.

* Calculation of amount(ml) of drug required.

Formula = Desired dose/Dose in hand * Quantity.

Here

Desired dose(D) = 1 mg.

Dose in hand(H) = 2 mg.

Quantity(Q) = 1 ml.

As per above formula

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

= 1/2 * 1

= 0.5 ml.

* Amount(gm) of drug patient receive the entire course.

Ordered dose = 500 mg QID (Four times a day) * 10 days.

So

Total dose required over the entire course = 500 * 4 * 10

= 20000 mg.

1 mg = 0.001 gm.

Total dose(gm) required = 20000 * 0.001

= 20 gm.
