The nurse is preparing to administer furosemide 80 mg PO daily. The amount available is furosemide oral solution 10mg/1mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round to the nearest whole number and label your answer.)
Explanation
To answer this question, the nurse needs to use the formula:
mL = (mg x 1 mL) / mg
where mg is the prescribed dose and mL is the available dose. Plugging in the values, we get:
mL = (80 mg x 1 mL) / 10 mg mL = 8 mL
Therefore, the nurse should administer 8 mL of furosemide oral solution.
