- Our pharmacy is located near several pediatricians’ offices, and each of these pediatricians has a preferred mouth rinse for sore throat. One doctor writes a combination of lidocaine, antacid, and Benadryl for a sore throat. Depending on the cause of the sore throat, she may add nystatin, an antifungal medication, or acyclovir, an antiviral medication. A typical prescription will read: antacid 1 part, lidocaine 2 parts, Benadryl 1 part, and nystatin 4 parts; dispense 8 ounces. We have found one of the simplest ways to calculate the amount of each drug to mix is by using fractions. First we add up the total number of “parts,” and this becomes our denominator or bottom number. For this compound, the denominator is 1 + 2 + 1 + 4 = 8. The numerator or top number is how many parts of that ingredient are used. For example, two parts of the mixture are lidocaine, so lidocaine is 2/8 of the mixture. To calculate how many ounces of lidocaine are needed, the fraction is multiplied by the total…A patient is being transitioned from IV antibiotics to PO antibiotics to facilitate discharge home.

Assignment Details Cell and Molecular Biology • Taxol - Originally produced from a natural substance in a tree (Pacific yew). Used for ovarian cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, and others. Inhibits mitotic spindles so they cannot line up the chromosomes. • Adrucil - Used to treat many cancers, including those of the colon, stomach, pancreas, breast, and cervix. It acts by preventing DNA synthesis in cells, so they cannot replicate their DNA. • Talazoparib - A chemical under research for use in advanced breast cancer. One possible impact of this drug on cells is mis-segregation of chromosomes (linked-up copies of duplicated chromosomes do not split and move to separate new cells as they should). • Cytochalasin B - A chemical that has been proposed…A pediatrician prescribes amoxicillin for a child who weighs 33 pounds.
