Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer haloperidol 5 mg IM to a client. Available is haloperidol 50 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth/whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 0.1
Rationale: The correct answer is 0.1 mL.
To calculate this, first divide the dose needed (5 mg) by the concentration of the medication (50 mg/mL) which equals 0.1 mL. This is the amount the nurse should administer.
Choices other than 0.1 mL are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the calculation based on the given information.
