A nurse is preparing to administer acetaminophen 650 mg PO to a client. The amount available is acetaminophen 325 mg/tablet. How many tablets should the nurse administer? (Round to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
The Correct Answer is ["2 tablets"]
To determine the number of tablets to administer, divide the desired dose (650 mg) by the strength of each tablet (325 mg).
650 mg / 325 mg = 2 tablets
The nurse should administer 2 tablets of acetaminophen to the client.
