Question 10:

Ceclor oral suspension 375 mg g. 8h, is ordered for a patient on discharge. The pharmacy gives the patient Ceclor 125 mg/5 ml oral suspension. How many teaspoons will the nurse instruct the patient to take per dose? Record numbers only.

Answer and Explanation
Correct Answer: "3" mg

Explanation

Dose ordered / Dose available = Amount to give

Dose ordered = 375 mg, Dose available = 125 mg/5 ml, Amount to give = x ml

Plug in the values and solve for x: 375 / 125 = x / 5

Simplify and cross-multiply: 3 = x / 5, x = 15

The amount to give is 15 ml, which is equivalent to 3 teaspoons (1 teaspoon = 5 ml)

The nurse will instruct the patient to take 3 teaspoons per dose
