Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer levothyroxine 100mcg po to a client who has hypothyroidism. Available levothyroxine is 50 mcg tablets. How many tablets should the nurse administer? (Round off to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Correct Answer: B

Rationale:
To determine the number of tablets to administer, divide the prescribed dose by the available dose per tablet. In this case, 100mcg รท 50mcg = 2 tablets. The correct answer is B because administering 2 tablets of 50mcg each will provide the total prescribed dose of 100mcg.
Choice A is incorrect as it would only provide 50mcg, while choices C and D would exceed the prescribed dose.

Choices E, F, and G are not applicable.
