There is an order to give acetaminophen 0.5 g po for a temperature greater than 38C. You have acetaminophen 250mg tablets. Mrs.s mith now has a temperature of 38.1 how many tablets do you prepare for her? Show the steps to how you got the answer?
1 answer:
Convert the grams into milligrams. 0.5 = 500 (to covert you'll multiply .5 x 1000).
D/H x Q will be the formula to use now that we have like terms (mg).
D= dose to give
H = dose that is supplied
Q= quantity to give
In this case your numbers will be
D = 500mg
H = 250mg
Q = 1 tablet
500 ÷ 250 = 2
2 x 1 = 2
So, that means you will give 2 tablets to your patient.
