An initial adult dose of rosuvastatin consists of 5 mg/day. This is increased every two weeks by 5 mg/day until therapeutic results are achieved. How many weeks are needed to reach the maximum maintenance dose of 40 mg/day?
Homework Answers
Ans) An initial adult dose of rosuvastatin consists of 5 mg/day. This is increased every two weeks by 5 mg/day until therapeutic results are achieved.
- Day 1 / one week = 5 mg/day
3 weeks = 10 mg/day
5 weeks = 15 mg/ day
7 weeks = 20 mg/day
9 weeks = 25 mg/day
11 weeks = 30 mg/day
13 weeks = 35 mg/day
15 weeks = 40 mg/day
15 weeks are needed to reach the maximum maintenance dose of 40 mg/day.
