Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer acetaminophen 10 mg/kg PO to a preschool child for fever. The child weighs 22 lb. Available is acetaminophen liquid 160 mg/5 mL. How many mL should the nurse administer?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
Step 1: 22 lb ÷ 2.2 lb/kg = 10 kg.
Step 2: 10 mg/kg × 10 kg = 100 mg.
Step 3: 100 mg ÷ (160 mg/5 mL) = 100 mg × (5 mL/160 mg) = 3.125 mL, rounded to 3.1 mL.
