Homework Answers
ANSWER.
* Safe dose of the child.
Ordered dose = 125 mg Q6H or four times a day.
Weight of the patient = 50 lb.
Convert lb to kg for calculation
1 lb = 0.454 kg
So
Weight of the patient = 50 * 0.454
= 22.7 kg.
Safe dose = 25 - 50 mg/kg in 4 divided doses
Safe dose for this child per day = 25 * 22.7 - 50 * 22.7
= 567.5 mg - 1135 mg per day in 4 divided doses.
Safe dose for this child per dose = 567.5/4 - 1135/4
= 141.8 mg to 283.7 mg per dose.
Ordered dose = 125 mg per dose.
* So the ordered dose is SAFE,but ineffective for this child.
