Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing an in-service program about preventing medication errors when transcribing a prescription. The nurse is using a dosage example of two tenths of a milligram. Which of the following examples should the nurse use to show appropriate transcription of this dosage?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: 0.2 mg. When transcribing a dosage of two tenths of a milligram, it should be expressed as 0.2 mg, as 0.2 is equivalent to two tenths.
Choice A (20 mg) is incorrect because it represents twenty milligrams, which is significantly higher than two tenths of a milligram.
Choice B (0.20 mg) is incorrect as it represents two hundredths of a milligram, not two tenths.
Choice D (2.0 mg) is incorrect as it represents two milligrams, which is ten times more than two tenths of a milligram.
Therefore, choice C is the correct representation of the dosage of two tenths of a milligram.
