The physician of patient AJ (50 kg, M) admitted in your hospital ordered that the patient receives 0.25 mL of drug A per kg of body weight. This must be mixed with 250 mL of D5W. The IV admixture must be administered over a six-hour period only using a drip set capable of delivering 15 drops per mL. Your pharmacy has stocks of 2.0% w/v of drug A solution (density of drug A: 1.2 g/mL). Answer all questions below. 1. How many mL of drug A must the patient receive to obtain the needed dose? A. 12.5 mL В. 25.0 mL C. 50.0 mL D. 75 mL 2. From the pharmacy's stocks of drug A solution, how many mL must be added 250 mL D5W to prepare the IV admixture? A. 250 mL В. 500 mL C. 750 mL D. 1000 mL 3. What is the total volume of the admixture that will be administered to the patient? A. 262.50 mL B. 500 mL C. 750 mL D. 1000 mL
