Answer #1

Cefazolin is cephalosporin group of antibiotic.in above situation

First of all we have to calculate drug/ml

0.5g in 50 ml D5W=500mg/50ml

=10mg kefzol/ml

Secondly we have to calculate infusion rate

Total volume in ml/time in min

50ml/30min=1.66ml/min

Drop factor is=20gtt/ml

So drop/min=1.66 x 20=33.2 drop/min
