A solution contains 100 mg/mL of a drug, and the recommended dose is 50 mg/lb. once a day. How much solution would be needed for one dose to be administered to a 1 kg kitten

110mg is your answer. 1 kg is equivalent to 2.2 pounds. If the recommendation is 50mg per pound, you take 50 (the recommended dose) and multiply it by 2.2 (the kittens weight) and get 110. Hope this helps!
