Correct Answer is C

Explanation

Choice A rationale: Typically associated with potassium depletion rather than elevated levels.

Choice B rationale: Furosemide, a loop diuretic, can cause potassium depletion leading to hypokalemia, but it might also cause transient elevations in potassium levels initially. Choice C rationale: Addison disease can cause hyperkalemia, or high potassium, due to decreased renal excretion of potassium and increased retention of sodium and water.

Choice D rationale: Cushing disease can cause hypokalemia, or low potassium, due to increased renal excretion of potassium and decreased reabsorption of sodium and water.

A. 6 B. 4 C. 1.2 D. 5

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale: This is the correct answer. It corresponds to 300 mg of the drug ((300x 5)/250).

Choice B rationale: This is incorrect because it is too low. It is the amount of milliliters that corresponds to 200 mg of amoxicillin trihydrate, which is less than the prescribed dose of 300 mg.

Choice C rationale: This is incorrect because it is too low. It is the amount of milliliters that corresponds to 60 mg of amoxicillin trihydrate, which is not enough to treat an oral infection.

Choice D rationale: This is incorrect because it is too low. It is the amount of milliliters that corresponds to 250 mg of amoxicillin trihydrate, which is less than the prescribed dose of 300 mg.
