Question

the vet orders 250 mg pf penicillin g im. it is available in a concentration of 1000mg /5 ml. how many cc should be injected

Answer 1

Hello,

• Volume (mL) = (Dose (mg) / Concentration (mg/mL))
• Substituting the given values, we get:
• Volume (mL) = (250 mg / 1000 mg/5 mL)
• Simplifying the expression, we get:
• Volume (mL) = 1.25 mL
• Therefore, 1.25 mL of Penicillin G should be injected.

Good luck
