Question

Hi, I am trying to calculate the dosage of mg i should be taking per night. I am 135 pounds 5’7.

Answer 1

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

I will use the approximate AVERAGE

of the dosage range ~ .20 mg/kg/week

135 pounds = 61.23 kg

Now , for SEVEN days/week dosing:

61.23 kg * .20 mg/kg-wk / 7 days/week = 1.75 mg/day

Answer 2

I choose the lower limit 0.024 mg/kg/day

1 pound = 0.453592 kg

135 pounds = 61.235 kg

dosage/day = 0.024 x 61.235 = 1.47 mg
