Answer #1

Ordered Furosemide = 60 mg three times a day

Furosemide availble= 40mg per tablet

How many tablets will you give your patient per dose?= 60/40= 1.5 tablet means 1 and half tablet per dose

How many tablets will the patient receive in 24 hours or per day?

sice it is orderd to give 3 times a day hence per day requirement = 1.5 x 3= 4.5 tablets are required in 24 hours
