Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer amoxicillin 30 mg/kg/day divided equally every 12 hr to a toddler who weighs 33 lb. Available is amoxicillin 200 mg/5 mL suspension. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 5.6 mL
Rationale: Calculation: 33 lb / 2.2 = 15 kg; 30 mg/kg/day × 15 kg = 450 mg/day; 450 mg / 2 doses = 225 mg/dose; 225 mg ÷ (200 mg/5 mL) = 5.625 mL, rounded to 5.6 mL per dose.
