The nurse is preparing a dose of amoxicillin for a 3 year-old with acute otitis media. The child weighs 33 lbs. The dosage prescribed is 50mg/kg/day in divided doses every 8 hours. The concentration of the drug is 250mg/5ml.
a) How many milliliters should the nurse administer per dose?
Homework Answers
Weight of child = 33 lbs = 33 * 0.454 = 15
Dosage = 50 mg/kg/day in 3 doses (since it has to be administered every 8 hours, 3 doses will be administered in total ).
Dose per day = 50 mg * 15 = 750 mg
Amount per dose = 750 mg/3 =250 mg
Since concentration = 250 mg/5 ml
Amount to be administered = 5 ml
