A patient is prescribed phenytoin suspension 250 mg by mouth 3 times a day. The strength of the drug is 125 mg/5mL. How many mL will the nurse administer for each dose?
Homework Answers
Ordered dose of phenytoin suspension orally - 250 mg ,3 times a day .
Available dose of phenytoin is 125mg in 5ml oral suspension.
So, 125mg of phenytoin is present in 5ml of oral suspension
1mg of phenytoin will be present in 5 / 125 ml of oral suspension
250 mg of phenytoin will be present in 5/ 125 × 250 ml of oral suspension
= 5/125 × 250 ml
= 10 ml
The nurse will administer 10 ml of the available oral suspension of phenytoin three times a day to give prescribed 250 mg of phenytoin .
