  1. Today the only form of liquid acetaminophen on the market has a concentration of 160 mg acetaminophen per 5.0 mL. How would you instruct parents of an infant to give a total of 40 mg of acetaminophen to their infant? 

Your directions should be clear, not lead to the confusion caused by the physician in the case study, and include the volume of liquid acetaminophen they should give their son.  Please show how you calculated the volume needed to provide 40 mg of acetaminophen.
