Question

. A particular drug is supplied in 20 mg tablets. A 10 lb dog requires a 10-day supply at a dose of 10mg/lb every 24 hours. How many tablets should be sent home with the owner?

Answer 1

5 Tablets

Step-by-step explanation:

The dog is 10 pounds and it needs 10mg every 24 hours but the pill is 20 mg (double) so the owner needs 5 pills but needs to cut them in half to give to his dog. one half per day for 10 days = 5 whole pills
