Final answer:
To fill the prescription of Amoxil 250 mg to be taken 1 capsule three times daily for 10 days, a total of 30 capsules are required.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student's question asks how much amoxicillin, a common antibiotic, is needed to fill out a prescription with certain dosage requirements. Specifically, the prescription states Amoxil (amoxicillin) 250 mg with a quantity sufficient (QS) of 1 capsule to be taken three times daily (TID) for 10 days. To calculate the total quantity, we multiply the number of doses per day by the number of days the medication is prescribed for. Thus, 1 cap TID means 3 capsules per day, and for 10 days, we get a total of 3 capsules/day × 10 days = 30 capsules needed to complete the prescription.
