Answer #1

A) You can give 7.5 mL per dose. (PO TID- "Per os ter in die" it is Latin for take orally three times a day) if bottle contains 1000000 units/10mL so 7.5mL contains 750000 units, the order is 750000 units three times so take 7.5mL per dose.

B) You can give 22.5 mL per day. (7.5mL per dose so 7.5 three times is 22.5mL per day)
