Final answer:

The concentration of Amikacin is not provided in the question, so we cannot determine the amount of ml to administer without this information.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the amount of ml to administer, we need to determine the total amount of medication in the available dose. The order states that Amikacin 375mg is to be administered. So the available dose is 375mg. Now, we need to find the concentration of Amikacin in the available dose.

Unfortunately, the concentration of Amikacin is not provided in the question. Without the concentration, we cannot accurately calculate the amount of ml to administer. It is important to have the concentration information to determine the volume of medication needed.

Please check if there are any additional details or instructions provided that might include the concentration of Amikacin. If not, consult with a healthcare professional or refer to a reliable source to obtain the necessary information.
