Question

A physician writes an order for Tylenol: 160 mg by mouth as needed every 6 hours for pain for a child. The pharmacy provides you with liquid Tylenol that has 80 mg per ml. How many ml will you administer per dose? (A dose being the amount you deliver every 6 hrs)

O 25 ml/dose
O 0.5 ml/dose
O 6 ml/dose
O 2 ml/dose

Answer 1

2 ml/dose

Step-by-step explanation:

80 is half of 160

Answer 2

2 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

160 mg is 2 ml because 1 ml = 80 mg so 80 + 80 = 160 and divide that by 80 and you get 2.

Hope this helps you.
