A medicine that is used to remove extra or the excess water and fluid from the body, it is mainly used in swelling, edema etc..

Needed dose or Desired dose - 100 mg. Capsule

Available dose or Dose on hand - 50 mg.capsule

Quantity = 1 capsule ( as 50 mg is available in 1 tablet.)

Frequency - po BID ( twice a day).

No. Of tablets needed=?.

To find the no. Of capsules the FORMULA is.

= Desired dose / Dose on hand * Quantity.

= 100 mg / 50 mg * 1 cap.

= 2*1

=2 capsules in one dose.

As per the question it has to be given BID( twice a day).

In one dose= 2 capsule = 100 mg

In second dose= 2 capsule = 100 mg.

Total, 2 capsules + 2 capsules = 4 capsules are needed in one Day or Per Day.
