Carbamazepine is an anticonvulsant and mood-stabilizing drug, a derivative of dibenzazepine.
Its therapeutic reference range of carbamazepine is between 4 and 12 mg/L (mcg/ml).
Since the serum carbamazepine level is 10 mcg/l (in the therapeutic reference range), the nurse should keep the prescription as it is.
There are 20 drops in 1 mL.
2L = 40,000 drops
24 hour = 1440 mins
flow rate = 40000/1440
= 28 drops per mins
