A nurse is calculating the dose of haloperidol for a client. The prescription is 5 mg IM
Correct Answer: 0.5
Rationale: The correct answer is 0.5 mL.
To calculate this, divide the prescribed dose (5 mg) by the concentration (10 mg/mL). 5 mg / 10 mg/mL = 0.5 mL. The nurse should administer 0.5 mL. Other choices are incorrect because they do not follow the basic calculation of dose divided by concentration for accurate administration.
