Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer amoxicillin 350 mg PO. Available is amoxicillin 250 mg/5 mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round to the nearest whole number.)
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
To calculate the mL needed for the dose, we use the formula: Desired dose (350 mg) ÷ Stock dose (250 mg) × Volume of stock solution (5 mL). This gives us: 350 ÷ 250 = 1.4; 1.4 × 5 = 7 mL.
Therefore, the nurse should administer 7 mL of amoxicillin.
Choice A is correct as it follows the correct calculation method. Other choices are incorrect because they do not result from the accurate calculation based on the given information.
