The healthcare provider orders Ceftriaxone 20 mg IV every 6 hours. The instructions say to reconstitute 10 mg of Ceftriaxone with 6.5 ml of normal saline for a final concentration of 5 mg/ml. How many mL would the nurse administer? (Round to the nearest tenth)

A. Category A:
Medications classified as Category A are considered the safest during pregnancy. They have been well-studied in pregnant humans, and no risk to the fetus has been demonstrated. This classification means that adequate and well-controlled studies have shown no evidence of harm to the fetus in the first trimester and no risk in later trimesters.

B. Category C:
Category C medications have shown potential risks to the fetus in animal studies, and there are no well-controlled studies in humans. The benefits of the medication may outweigh the potential risks, but caution is advised. These medications are used when the potential benefits justify the potential risks to the fetus.

C. Category X:
Category X medications are contraindicated in pregnancy due to evidence of fetal abnormalities or risks that outweigh any potential benefits. These medications have demonstrated clear evidence of harm to the fetus in both human and animal studies, and their use is not recommended during pregnancy.

D. Category B:
Category B medications have shown no risk to animal fetuses, but there is a lack of adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant humans. The absence of evidence of harm in animal studies suggests that these drugs are generally considered safe, though their effects on human fetuses are not well-documented.

A) Affinity: Affinity refers to the strength of the interaction between a drug and its receptor. It does not describe the body's overall handling of the drug or the drug's effects on the body.

B) Efficacy: Efficacy describes the ability of a drug to produce a desired therapeutic effect. It pertains to the drug’s effectiveness once it interacts with its target but does not encompass the body's handling of the drug.

C) Biotransformation: Biotransformation is the process of drug metabolism, specifically how the body chemically alters a drug. While it is a part of pharmacokinetics, it does not cover the entire concept.

D) Pharmacokinetics: Pharmacokinetics is the term used to describe what the body does with the drug, including absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. It encompasses the processes that determine the drug's concentration in the body over time.

E) Pharmacodynamics: Pharmacodynamics refers to what the drug does to the body, including the relationship between drug concentration and effect. It encompasses the mechanisms of action, including receptor interactions and therapeutic effects.
